Haselgrove Vine Sean McLaren Vale Grenache 2024

Share

 Apparently, the Celtic translation of Old Vine is Vine Sean, hence the name. The grapes are crushed to open fermenters with a small percentage of whole bunches, before spending some time maturing in older French oak puncheons. There is a pale crimson hue here, with the nose exhibiting florals, red fruits, spices, a touch of cold tea and hints of strawberries. The wine has fine balance and sleek yet slightly firm tannins, with medium length. A most pleasant Grenache, which shows the advantages that old vines can offer. One for drinking anytime over the next five to six years.
