Clare Valley Grenache Shiraz Mourvèdre
2018 Clare vintage was long and slow with low rainfall and above average ambient temperatures. This dry period continued right through the growing season resulting in perfecting finishing conditions. Allowing the fruit to intensify colour while retaining the more savoury elegant tannins Clare is known for. The result is an silky and refined style. A combination of French and American hogsheads and barriques for up to 2 years.
