Cleanskin Grenache Tempranillo Malbec 2021 (Clare Valley)

All the fruit parcels used to produce this wine were left on the vines to fully ripen, and then de-stemmed, crushed and fermented separately on skins for 7 to 10 days. After a carefully managed fermentation that promoted colour extraction while limiting the harsh tannins uptake, the wines were pressed off skins and some of the softer and balanced pressings combined back with the free run. The different wine components were then filtered, blended and transferred to a mixture of older French oak hogsheads. The wine remained in oak for 24 months before bottling under screwcap for freshness and authenticity.
