Grenache Blanc 2023

The Clan-Exclusive Grenache Blanc is our smallest ever production, hand-bottled for an incredible 420 bottle production released just for our Maxwell Clan wine club members!

Grenache Blanc is a classical grape variety from the western Mediterranean, particularly famous in the Châteauneuf-du-Pape wine region of France aswell as the Terra Alta, Navarra & Priorat wine regions of Spain where it originates and is called Garnacha Blanca.
It enjoys warm, dry & windy regions and as a mutation of our beloved Grenache (noir) it is perfectly at home in McLaren Vale.

"Noticeably fruity and appreciably dry. Nice combination. It tastes of nashi pear and green apples though there are notes of pebbles and honey in there too. Basically, it’s lively up front and sophisticated down back. That’s a good combination too. It works."

"This has become better, pronouncing the trend of better McLaren Vale producers to champion the right sort of varieties in the right places. Spot-on aromas of quince, pistachio and salty preserved lemon. A little too much talc and zesty acidity for my liking, but this well wrought wine is on the right path. It could use more weight, phenolics and textural amplitude, but otherwise delicious. Drink or hold."
