SKU: HEIALCGRE24
The Heirloom Vineyards Alcala McLaren Vale Grenache was produced from the best McLaren Vale vineyards whose clones and viticulture embody the very best in cutting edge but old school viticulture and winemaking. The plushness and generosity of the grenache fruit is brilliantly displayed across the palate, but it is also brilliantly offset by plating tannins and an in-and-out running acidity. All of these qualities crash balletically together at the end of the palate, as if a well-practiced circus troupe: cherried fruits, puckering tannins, and piquant acidity.

Palate

An effortless structure and a hidden but present acidity. Lolling and lulling - grip without bossy tannins, tannins without hulking heft. Red and bright fruits and berries swirl weightlessly across your palate, and beneath them dance darker fruits. Raspberry, blackberry, blueberry. A mirror and a window; savoury and yet fruit-sweet. Long and lingering but at all times fresh and uplifting.

Stew some squid slowly with fennel and smoked pimenton powder and some white beans and some chorizo slices.
