2023 Gullyview Estate The Fruitful Grenache
Description
WINEMAKER: Jono Koerner
REGION: Clare Valley, SA
VARIETY: Grenache
VITICULTURE: Organic/Sustainable
The Fruitful Grenache is a modern take on the variety, medium bodied with incredible fruit up front, it ticks the box for a lot of wine drinkers as it has nice layers of concertration on the back pallet but still fresh and vibrant. The wine is Fruitful in our eyes.
This wine jumps from the glass - pretty red fruits, cherries, raspberries mixed with subtle floral notes. On the palate it is light and juicy up front with flavours of blackcurrant and raspberries, which fills out into the mid palate. This wine has a gentle tannin structure and nice weight. If you like Pinot Noir we think you will like this wine as an alternate.
Anthony and Christine Koerner bought ‘Gullyview Vineyards’ on 15 May 1987. Today they are producing some of Australia’s highest quality grapes. In 2023 son Jono Koerner and partner Megan Jenkin established ‘Gullyview Estate’ which pays homage to Christine and Anthony’s hard work through carefully crafted wines that reflect the place in which they call home. The Estate is 70 hectare in total and is located in Leasingham (Watervale) Clare Valley. Jono and Megan only use a small portion of the fruit and the grapes used for the wines they make are chosen from a handful of select sites to best showcase the terroir and variety characteristics. The vineyard is mostly Terra Rossa soils, red clay over limestone, so all the wines have a beautiful underlinging minrality.
