APPEARANCE

Beautifully intense purple colour.

AROMA

Aromatics that jump out of the glass. Pure fruited aromas of redcurrant and cinnamon.

PALATE

Fresh acidity keeps the wine lively and vibrant. A small percentage of whole bunch fermentation in the wine adds a savoury element and herbal notes. The Welkin Grenache is a light bodied wine that works very well in an aperitivo setting.

VINIFICATION

Three vineyards sites make up this wine. The first two sites had the fruit destemmed with whole berries fermented to dryness and pressed directly to 500L, 600L and 2,400 neautral oak. The third site was fermented with 50% whole bunches and was then pressed to neautral 500L and 600L puncheons with the result being that this wine containes 5% whole bunch ferment. The wine remained in oak on full lees where it matured until bottling.
