Rall Grenache Blanc 2020

“This 2020 Grenache blanc still produced from the same dry farmed, ungrafted bush vines in the Piekenierskloof is my favourite to date. The idea behind this has always been to make a wine that reflects the fresher and lighter side of this variety but with a much smaller crop the wine has great concentration and length at only 12.5% alc without losing the energy. Picked in 2 stages and only fermented and matured in concrete eggs and clay to ensure nothing but the vineyard, the place and the variety are expressed in the final product.

Like the other white wines in the range, the grapes are whole-bunch pressed and transferred without settling straight to the vessels for fermentation. This vintage spent 9 months on the lees in concrete egg and amphorae before bottling without any heavy filtration.” Winemaker’s notes
