Description
Adam Foster believes ion Heathcote Grenache, and with this lovely wine you can certainly see why.
The fruit for this comes off the Humis vineyard in Colbinabbin, grown on classic red Cambrian soils. It’s 60% whole bunch, wild fermented, raised in old oak and bottled without fining or filtration — no additions, no new wood, just pure vineyard expression.
The nose is red fruited and savoury — think raspberry, plum skin, dried herbs and a touch of crushed flowers. It’s mid-weight and fresh, with light tannin and bright acid keeping things taut. There’s a bit of stem in the mix, giving it shape and a light spice without taking over.
It’s not trying to be polished or pushed — just a straight-up, thoughtfully made Grenache that reflects where it’s from and how it was handled. You can drink it now, slightly chilled if you like, or let it stretch out over a long afternoon with food.

"Full bodied and concentrated flavour, very intense and driving long, the tannins fine and persuasive and well harmonised with the entirety of the wine. Long, long carry. A very smart grenache indeed."
- Huon Hooke (The Real Review)

"This is a serious Grenache and yet it’s joyous and approachable... It will cellar. But it is indeed delicious right now too."
- Campbell Mattinson (The Wine Front)
