YANGARRA ESTATE MCLAREN VALE GRENACHE 750 ml

Description

Discover the captivating story behind Yangarra Estate McLaren Vale Grenache, where ancient bush vines rooted in 1946 cling to a vast sandy dune known as The Beach. This unique site, layered over the North Maslin Sands, nurtures vines that have weathered decades, producing a wine of remarkable depth and character from Australia's renowned McLaren Vale region.

Each bottle captures the essence of these resilient old vines, hand-picked and meticulously sorted to highlight their natural vitality. With half the berries left whole for a spontaneous wild ferment, the result is a deeply hued red-purple wine that unfolds with layers of ripe plum and spice on the nose. Its full-bodied presence delivers a solid core, wrapped in firm tannins that provide structure and longevity.

Certified organic and biodynamic, this Grenache stands out for its perfumed elegance and complexity. The bouquet whispers of rose petals and wild strawberries, leading to a palate alive with vibrant energy across a vivid red fruit spectrum. It's a testament to the power of place, offering drive and finesse in every sip.

Earning 97 points from James Halliday, this Australian red wine embodies the thrill of discovery for enthusiasts seeking something truly special. At 15% ABV and in a standard 750ml bottle, its dry profile (sweetness level 01) makes it versatile for pairing with hearty meals or savoring solo on quiet evenings. Priced at $39.99, it's an invitation to experience the soul of McLaren Vale Grenache—elegant yet bold, perfumed yet structured, a wine that lingers in memory long after the glass is empty.

Whether you're building your cellar or treating yourself to a standout red, Yangarra Estate McLaren Vale Grenache delivers the complexity and drive that define exceptional old-vine expressions. Let these gnarly strugglers from The Beach transport you to the sun-drenched dunes of South Australia.
