This Grenache Blanc vineyard, planted in 2009 at 450 metres above sea level, takes root in schist and shale soils in an arid continental climate. Bernhard Bredell, from a line of Helderberg winegrowers, saw in it a climate close to that of northern Spain, the grape's spiritual home.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes are picked by hand and then undergo a short skin maceration of about two days before pressing. Fermentation starts spontaneously with native yeasts, in a minimal-intervention approach. The wine is then aged for nine months on fine lees in old 228- and 400-litre barrels as well as in a concrete tank, then bottled without fining or filtration, to preserve all the integrity and texture of the Grenache Blanc.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine reveals notes of \u003cstrong\u003ewhite peach\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003esweet citrus\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ecandied lemon zest\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eelderflower\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003elilac\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003erose\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eginger\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003efynbos herbs\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003ewet stone\u003c\/strong\u003e. The highly fragrant nose blends fruit, flowers, spice and a mineral touch. The palate, light in appearance but intensely flavoursome, rests on lively acidity balanced by a saline, slightly grippy texture inherited from the maceration. The finish is long, precise and elegant.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dionis","offers":[{"title":"750ml","offer_id":59491432399196,"sku":null,"price":46.7,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0284\/0032\/0643\/files\/Grenache.png?v=1791907379","url":"https:\/\/www.lebaroudeurduvin.com\/en-it\/products\/scions-of-sinai-gramadoelas-grenache-blanc-wo-klein-karoo-afrique-du-sud","provider":"Le Baroudeur du Vin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
