Tomfoolery Young Blood Grenache 2024

Inspired by the new wave Vino Joven wines of the old world, Young Blood Grenache is built for pure, uncomplicated enjoyment. Sourced from select Barossa Valley vineyards, the fruit is open fermented with native yeasts and 30% whole bunch in the mix, followed by 7 days post-ferment maceration before gentle basket pressing. The wine is racked to a split of stainless steel vats (50%) and old French oak hogsheads (50%) for 6 months maturation before bottling unfiltered. Bright crimson in the glass with a fresh purple hue. The nose is exuberant with jubey red fruits, cherry, raspberry and a hint of dark chocolate. The palate is soft and medium-bodied with candied blue and red fruits, fine powdery tannins and a juicy, food-friendly finish.
