2013 Jeanneret Grace & Favour Grenache Shiraz
Recommendations
A little bottle age goes a long long way in delivering harmonious wine, with this boldly flavoured, deep and chunky Clare Valley blend now softening nicely.
Inky, luscious and full tilt - it's density writ large.
Tech stuff
How's it taste?
Great smoky aroma on the nose with spice and tertiary characters on the palate. Still has primary black fruit. Aged well, enjoy now. Fantastic Value
How was it made?
The Grenache and both parcels of Shiraz were fermented separately. The Grenache was destemmed and pumped to a closed fermenter, and fermented with wild yeast. Fermentation lasted about a fortnight following four days pre-ferment maceration (great for extracting colour and vibrant fruit flavours). After pressing the Grenache and one parcel of the Shiraz were blended. The wine was then matured in tank for 10 months, and then filled to oak, none of it new, and aged for a further eighteen months. It was then blended with the second parcel of Shiraz and finally bottled, with no fining or filtration
Who made it?
Jeanneret Wines was established in 1992 by the Jeanneret family who were led heart first into the regions’ vineyards. A passion for making wines purely for their own enjoyment organically expanded into a business and the Jeanneret cellar door was opened in October 1994. Headed up by self-taught Winemaker, Ben Jeanneret, our ethos is to produce generous wines full of flavour to be enjoyed amongst friends. Ben has perfected the art and is regarded as one of the leading winemakers of Clare Valley and was named one of the “Ten Dark Horses” by James Halliday. The business has continued to grow, change and innovate, but one thing has always remained the same – to make great wines from local grapes.
