2023 Saltfleet Grenache Shiraz Mataro
Description
WINEMAKER: Kyle Egel & Jonny Cook
REGION: McLaren Vale, SA
VARIETY: Grenache, Shiraz, Mataro
VITICULTURE: Organic/Sustainable
A blend of three individual parcels, Grenache from Blewitt Springs, Shiraz from Ingoldby Road and Mataro from Sellicks Hill. The result; a deep layered flavour profile that is concentrated and balanced. The aroma is rich and complex, mixing notes of dark berries, spice and hints of leather with a subtle floral aroma. Medium to full bodied, with flavours of ripe red fruit, raspberry, cherry, mixed with a savoury spice. The tannins are well structured, offering a pleasant and polished mouth feel while the finish is long, nuanced and satisfying.
Two high school mates, both started their journey in McLaren Vale in 2014. Jonny funded a surf trip to Indonesia with a vintage at Rosemount and Kyle began his career in the cellar at Serafino. Fast forward ten years with a combined 20 vintages, an Oenology degree and countless bottles of vino, they decided it was time to put their best foot forward and begin to work with passionate growers they had already created relationships with throughout the McLaren Vale region. The goal? To produce sustainable clean and authentic wines, balancing minimal intervention with the science of Oenology and to leave their fingerprint on a region they call home.

We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
