Tasting Notes:

Light bright crimson purple in colour. Quite intense aromatics of earth and spice, together with a hint of rose petal and turkish delight. Concentrated rich red and black berry, plum characters being quite dominant with underlying pepper and spice. Subtle hints of raspberry and red licorice flavours, with a backbone of finely grained tannins and oak.


Technical:

Alexander Laing is sourced from a single vineyard in Greenock on the far northwestern slopes of the Barossa valley. The Grenache from Alexander Laing vineyard manifests itself as small berries on small bunches that are packed with flavour. That, coupled with old vines that have already proved their provenance, gives us a perfect base. At dawn, the grapes are handpicked then destemmed. Fermentation, like our top wines, Exile and Émigré, is conducted in vats, followed by maloactic fermentation and ageing in French oak barrels.
