Grenache Gris
Grenache Gris is a variety not commonly seen in Australia, celebrated for its unique character and versatility. Grown in the heart of the Heathcote region, it offers a fresh and textural wine that's perfect for adventurous wine lovers seeking something different. This wine boasts aromas of pear, white peach, and orange blossom, complemented by hints of wet stone and a gentle herbal edge. The palate is layered and vibrant, balancing fresh citrus zest with a creamy texture and a savory mineral finish.

Vineyard
Hand picked from our own Tellurian vineyard Grenache Gris Block, in Tranter Rd, Toolleen, growing in Cambrian soils formed over 500 million years. Red clay with sub soil interspersed with high stone content. Deep, decomposed greenstone rock with soil depths allowing roots to reach deep, while relatively low fertility controls vigour and yield.
Winemaking Notes
Grapes hand picked and whole-bunch pressed to optimise flavour and acidity. Fermented in one older demi muid 600L barrel. Wine remained on lees in old French oak for 9 months prior to bottling. Cross flow filtered, fined using vegetable protein, prior to bottling.
