Details
This wineﾒs colour shows full to medium depth reds with purple hues. The aroma is bright and jubey with spicy dark berried fruits and a savoury, meaty plum fragrance. The palate packs a juicy core of impressive density showing savoury and earthy textures and a fine grained tannin finish.
Smoothly balanced and eminently drinkable. Certainly consumable now, but a wine that will age well over the next five years.
Suitable for vegans.
The 2007/08 season will certainly be remembered as one of the Barossa's most difficult, due to the on-going effects of drought and also a mid-March record heatwave. Fortunately, following on from another relatively dry winter, good spring rains freshened up the vines and healthy crops were established. Average temperatures combined with dry conditions and cool evenings, all perfect for the flavour development of Grenache, continued until the middle of March. Then an extreme heatwave arrived in the region on the 10th March, causing very rapid ripening and shrivelling of grapes and a subsequent drop infruit quality.
Fortunately the majority of our fruit was hand-harvested prior to the heatwave and as such the 2008 Bushvine Grenache shows very good colour, varietal definition, balance, richness and fruit persistence.
