SHE'S ELECTRIC GRENACHE
She's Electric Grenache
Seaview, McLaren Vale
Some vineyards have a remarkable story to tell and we came upon such a
vineyard in late 2016. At the Seaview end of Chapel Hill Rd, its old bush vines
contrasted by a planting of much younger Grenache. Apparently, half of the
vineyard was burned when a bird caught light on a power line, fell to the ground
and set light to the vineyard! We were so glad that some of the amazing old
vines are still there for us to use.

Viticulture & Winemaking
Dry grown, old bush vines, grown on
red-brown sandy loams with quartz
and ironstone. Low intervention
viticulture with minimal spray regime,
cover crops and promotion of
biodiversity.
The fruit was hand-picked early in the
morning before swift transport to the
winery where we retained 50% whole
bunches. A gentle foot pressing helped
establish the wild ferment. Once
fermented, the wine was transferred to
500l puncheons & 300 litre used French
oak hogsheads where it stayed for 8
months before being bottled unfined
and unfiltered.
