Sands of Time Grenache

Early on in our Grenache journey, we were introduced to Sue Trott’s Home Block in the Blewitt Springs sub-region of McLaren Vale. It’s beautiful aspect, raised elevation and free-draining deep sandy soils are the perfect spot for dry-grown bush-vine Grenache and we were so lucky to be offered the opportunity to purchase a little fruit. Some years on and we have learned a little about the site and refined our picking decisions and vinification to the extent that from 2017 we were content that we could do the site justice by bottling separately.

We have now worked with this vineyard for 14 years and this wine has won the country's top accolades and demonstrates that McLaren Vale Grenache is world class.

From 2024 this wine carries the Sustainable Winegrowing Australia Trust Mark.
