About The Wine
A lovely, lighter, frisky Grenache wine here from Troy Kalleske & family.
This colourful range of wines from Kalleske aims to take classic Barossa varieties and reimagine them in a modern context. Here is Grenache in a very light, easy drinking style. The fruit for this wine comes off the vine up to three weeks earlier than the other Grenache fruit on the Kalleske block.
Picking so much earlier brings a whole array of strawberry, raspberry and sweet floral notes to the wine. It's also much lower in alcohol (12.0%) than your traditional Barossa Grenache.
It's a very tasty rendition of the variety.

From The Producer
Grenache is one of the most widely planted red wine grape varieties in the world. It is typically harvested late in the season when it is fully ripe to display gorgeous rich sweet red fruit characters and soft supple tannins with a generous and supple mouthfeel. But when harvested early in the season a divergent and equally impressive wine can result.
Parallax Grenache is picked 2-3 weeks earlier than normal and combined with fermentation on stalks and minimal maturation has resulted in an admirably divergent wine compared to the norm from this variety, showing the versatility of Grenache.

Critic Reviews
"What a great wine this is. Fresh, fun, delicious, easy, fragrant and poised. Oh yeah. More like this thanks. Pretty, floral, perfumed and just darn nice lovely freshness. Slippery, lush and fruity-sweet, rose hip tea, Turkish Delight, all this wrapped in really fine, light tannins, a wonderful silky tug through and through. Tea and tart, fruit and herb, minerality through the whole thing. This is such a delight."- Mike Bennie (The Wine Front)
