Production
All Grenache batches are fermented in open fermenters, where the presence of whole berries are encouraged. Pumped over twice daily, flavours colours and tannins are gently extracted from the grapes until pressing off skins after 7 days. Each parcel is maintained separate and is racked into a blend of older French HogsHeads for 12 months prior to careful blending.
Tasting Notes
A wonderfully juicy and bright Grenache! The wine is only just medium bodied, which, when combined with the bright acidity and the complex but fresh aromatic makes it such a refreshing and enjoyable drink that can be enjoyed with almost any food!
Food Match
Pairing well with spicy asian dishes through to tea smoked duck, The G is also readily enjoyed on it's own.
