Aphelion Brini Grenache 2023
Sourced from the upper tank block on the Brini vineyard in the Blewitt Springs sub-region of McLaren Vale. This block has been a staple of Aphelion from our first vintage and forms the backbone of the Confluence Grenache. Sandy based loam soils provide fruit that gives intensity and a brooding edge.
Winemakers comments
Part of our premium SV Grenache range, the fruit used to make this wine is sourced from a single vineyard in the northeast corner of the Blewitt Springs area of McLaren Vale owned by the Brini family
Vinification
The fruit was hand-picked on the 3rd April and processed as a 100% whole bunch ferment. After a slow and cool ferment the fruit was pressed to large format neutral French oak where it remained on full lees until racking for bottling in May 2024.
