Hairy Grenache 2022
Along Came Jones
Grenache but not as you know it! From our Lledoner Pelut aka Hairy Grenache vineyard here just outside the village of Tuchan in the lieu-dit Rebouls. It took me a couple of vintages to perfect the art of making wine from this unusual grape variety. But now I think we’ve cracked it and make a lovely, smooth, fruity style of wine.

Tasting notes
Silky, fruity and concentrated. Pure strawberries and raspberries with hints of vanilla. It has the typical grenache characteristics: mineral and bursting with red fruits. While it is on the lighter side compared to my bigger, bolder reds, it still have to typical spiciness of a red from Tuchan. Drink slightly chilled on a summer's evening, as a n aperitif or with lighter dishes.
