Oldenburg Vineyards Grenache Noir 2020

This stunning Grenache rolls on to the palate like a warm summer morning. An intricate display of strawberries, marzipan, fennel and raspberries showcase an abundant bouquet. The palate shows a delectable pithy blood-orange characteristic, matched by candy, jasmine and a slight hint of vanilla. The acidity is mouth-watering and lends itself to a spectacular finish in combination with the gentle, yet structured tannins. A truly beautiful wine in its elegance that will continue to develop its structure and layers within the next 3-5 years.

Bunches and berries were meticulously sorted. 1/3rd whole bunch and 2/3rd whole berry fermentation. Wild fermented in a stainless steel tank with punch-downs and pump-overs 1-2 times per day. The wine was basket pressed and malolactic fermentation took place in barrels of which only 5 were made. The wine was then matured for 11 months in old 300l French oak barrels.
