Our E Block Grenache is named after our second daughter Evie. The wine embodies her spirit, playfulness and joyous outlook on life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Vintage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe region had good winter rains, filling the soil profile which meant the vines were well prepared for spring. The 2023 spring was wet and cold, allowing for slower shoot growth. Spring rainfall was higher than average, meaning there was higher disease pressure, but it also meant irrigation was kept to a minimum, if any. Grenache, typically being more delicate, struggled with the pressure. However, the fruit came in clean. Summer was respectfully mild. The combination resulting in a later harvest. Perfect for slow ripening, allowing flavour development while limiting sugar accumulation. Much more balanced, leaving us with elegant wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWinemaker Tasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: Deep ruby \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBouquet: The aroma is spicy, white pepper and black cherry with some meaty and earthy notes. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePalate: Soft upfront with a firm mouth-coating fruit tannin, giving long length.
