Pax Aeterna Old Vine ‘Barossa Nouveau’ Grenache 2021, Chaffey Bros. Wine Co.

This Grenache is hand-picked and sourcedfrom two distinct areas in the vineyard. Fermentation takes place in an open fermenters with about 1/3rd whole bunches in the ferment left to cold soak for 24 hours and natural yeasts left to do their thing. A further 6 days of maceration takes place with the combination of selected yeast. The grapes are then pressed into large format second and third use French barrels (500L Puncheons) where the wine spends only three months before being bottled unfiltered and unfined to showcase the joy of tasting this wine in the barrel hall without any laboratory / bottling line accoutrements.
