Kangarilla Grenache

This wine forms part of Clarendon Hills’ ‘Premier Cru’ classification.

The most densely structured of the Grenache’s thus far. Recessed and slow to emerge from its shell – The Kangarilla vineyard offers majesty in both extension and girth. The depth of savoury, but fresh fruit within the extract remains with this vineyard for well over 15 years. Cleanliness and character define this site. More backward than the Blewitt Springs or Onkaparinga – it is almost the slowest maturing wine in the varietal domain.

Planted in 1942, this is the only Clarendon Hills grenache patch that has been trellised. The vines are planted in hard clay, and the resulting Kangarilla Grenache is considered a ‘Premier Cru’.
