2023 Locura
Grenache
We scoured the country for rare clones of Grenache that could help us create a wine of intense perfume and the summery brightness of fresh berries. We found not one, but two beautiful clones hidden away in a niche corner of our great Australian wine industry, and hey – Locura!!
Carefully manicured young vines delivered ripe clusters of exceptional finesse to whole berry fermentation with native yeasts over the course of a month, giving us the opportunity to show off Grenache’s curiously muscly arms and its pretty face.
Aged 14 months in clay amphora to add some "why not?" to its resume, because, hey - Grenache can never be fabulous enough, then bottled unfined and unfiltered.
Light enough for summer, layered enough to impress!
