The 2024 was destemmed, half the berries crushed, then fermented in concrete with 20 days on skins. From there it went into a Drunk Turtle amphora for 19 months, meaning no oak at all. The whole approach is about clarity and texture, letting the fruit and site come through without interference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe result is fine and pale, delicate in structure but not lacking in character. There's red fruit, spice and earthy complexity, with sandy tannins that grip without any hardness and a finish that's clean and savoury. At 13.3% it's light on its feet for Grenache, which is part of what makes it so easy to drink, though there's enough shape and structure for it to develop well in bottle too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eA seriously individual Aussie Grenache.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"This is one of those wines that’s more about the feel of it than the flavours...
