OTHER REDS | |2006 KALLESKE OLD VINE GRENACHE !! $44.95
REGION: BAROSSA VALLEY, SOUTH AUSTRALIA
"From a single vineyard plot planted in 1935 on the Kalleske estate out in Greenock, this has true old vine soul. Dark ripe berries and rich brambly fragrance, savoury oak and earthy notes; still very unevolved at this stage. Old vines bring concentration with elegance and balance and that’s what this wine is all about- smooth, supple tannins roll with a deep, scoop through the finish. Australian Grenache at the top level and phenomenal value for money on a world stage." Nick Stock, WBM 100 Wines of the Year (2008) – 96 points
"This is an unequivocally bold, full-bodied Barossa red wine. It has a glorious perfume of glossy ripe purple plums and crushed dried herbs, and fills the mouth with rich squashed blackberries and leathery tannins. Fabulous." Max Allen, The Weekend Australian Magazine
"I’ve always liked the Kalleske grenache but at times it’s seemed excessively minty. This release has a touch of mint but it’s minor enough to make it a positive component of the wine - leaving me free to enjoy the wine’s silken flavours. This really does have a soft heart. It tastes of raspberries, dried licorice, blackberries and minimal oak, and its tannins have been beautifully and softly managed. It is 15.5% alcohol but it doesn’t overtly show it. 2006 is arguably a lighter vintage but for this wine it’s worked as a positive. Drink: 2009-2015." Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front - 94 points
"Old Vine Grenache is made from the oldest Grenache vineyard on the Kalleske farm, planted in 1935. The grapes are entirely dry-grown ensuring intensely flavoured fruit. Fermentation is warm in open-top fermenters with gentle hand pumpovers twice daily. After basket pressing the wine is matured in seasoned hogsheads prior to bottling. An intense, rich and robust Barossa Grenache with plenty of exotic flavours, a layered palate, harmonious balance and solid structure." Winery Notes
Drink Now to 2016.
