Cirillo Estate Wines, Grenache "Ancestor Vine", 2018
These may be the oldest producing Grenache vines on the planet. Cirillo Estate in the Barossa Valley farms vines planted in 1848, basket-pruned in the old Calabrian way — a method Marco Cirillo's family carried from southern Italy — and in fifty years only two people have pruned this hallowed block. The 'Ancestor Vine' Grenache is the estate's crown jewel: deep, savory, and remarkably elegant for the Barossa, with the perfume and finesse only ancient vines deliver. The 2018 is a ripe, complete vintage. A genuinely historic bottle for old-vine devotees.
