Barossa Valley - Grenache/Mouvedre Rose
Vineyard: Located in southern Barossa Valley in the Lyndoch region. These premium, old Grenache and Mourvèdre vines is regarded as Chaffey’s best parcel of wine grapes.
Season: Exceptional quality was achieved from the 2019 vintage but extremely limited quantities produced; due to the lower than average rainfall recordings. Frost disrupted the first vine buds in spring and throughout flowering which again reduced overall wine grape supply. The dry ripening season through summer kept disease pressure to a minimum and cooler high country breezes allowed the grapes to ripen for a vintage of premium quality.

Wild ferment and un-fined, with three months in French oak barrels.

Barossa Valley - Grenache/Syrah/Mourvedre

Elegant Syrah fruit was essential and sourced at the southern end of the Barossa on a Williamstown site. Cool evenings and warm days ensure an elegant and lifted style of Syrah. Mourvèdre, the backbone of the famous Barossa blend, was carefully nurtured from vineyards in central Barossa, Vine Vale.
Season: A dry start to the vintage growing season with expected cooler evenings and seasonal late frosts. Little frost settled on the grape vines due to the site aspect. A warm start to the summer season ensured a strong and healthy canopy structure. Along with warm weather, rain arrived and was higher than expected throughout January and February. The rain refreshed the vines to ripen with full colour and flavour intensity.
