About The Wine
Michael Papps describes his Second Take Grenache as a wine where Grenache meets Beaujolais.
The sweet, vibrant fruit off this old vineyard is fermented with a good amount of whole bunches and sees barely a whisper of new oak - none of which impedes the pure red-fruited expression of variety and region.
It's a red wine bursting with vitality and exuberance. It's Grenache running full tilt at freshness.
About Yelland & Papps
Yelland and Papps are not your average Barossa producer.
Owned and run by husband and wife team Michael and Susan Papps since 2005, their philosophy is about respecting what has made the Barossa great, whilst also experimenting with a new range of grape varieties and winemaking techniques.
Grenache and Shiraz are their primary focus in reds, while their textural Roussanne and Vermentino provide delicious alternatives to the typical regional white varieties.
These are very well made, interesting wines that show Barossa warmth and richness with a little bit of an edge.

From The Producer
We tend to hand pick our Grenache early to retain natural acidity and it is split into two halves – whole-bunch and whole berry. A percentage heads into puncheons as complete whole bunches for carbonic maceration; the remainder for picking bins for an old fashioned foot stomping party, with around 14 days on skins before pressing back to puncheons (14% new) for 11 months. Again…. It is bottled unfiltered and unfined.
It’s all about fruit purity and fragrance…. Raspberry, bright red and dark plums and cherries cut with exotic spice, a flourish of purple flowers and underlying hints of ginger-cake. Succulent, juicy and wonderfully perfumed with a bright, tight line across the palate and a fan of pure spicy fruit on the finish.

Critic Reviews
"Hand picked from 68yo vines, wild fermented with 3–4 weeks on skins, matured for 9 months. Typical light colour, the perfumed bouquet of wild forest fruits and rose petals changes, also taking in raspberries and conserved cherries." - James Halliday (Halliday Wine Companion)

We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.
Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.
I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.
Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.
Can I special order a wine you do not sell? If it’s doable, then we’ll make it happen. Just contact us directly via phone, chat or email and we’ll find out for you right away. Please note that in most cases special orders such as these will need to be in full case lots (6 or 12 bottles).
