Yalumba The Tri-Centenary Grenache 2018
From Yalumba in South Australia’s Barossa, The Tri-Centenary Grenache 2018 is a refined 100% Grenache from 820 bush vines planted in 1889 in Vine Vale’s Nursery vineyard on sandy loam over clay. Fermented with wild yeasts and aged in older French oak hogsheads for 10 months, it is vegan-friendly and Sustainable Winegrowing Australia certified, offering a pale ruby hue with vibrant complexity.
Tasting Notes
A vibrant, elegant red with rich fruit and velvety texture, showcasing Barossa’s terroir.
The nose reveals raspberry, blood orange, and provençal herbs, with hints of cranberry and musky incense. On the palate, it’s mid-weight and flowing, with fine tannins, bright acidity, and flavors of red cherry, spice, and a long, pithy finish.
