Tasting Notes
From 70 year old Grenache vines planted in the sandy soils of Blewitt Springs, this is a finely judged, lighter framed expression with plenty of depth beneath the surface. Gentle handling and a portion of whole bunches bring lift and spice, while ageing in old oak on lees adds texture without weight. The wine shows bright raspberry and red berry fruit layered with cocoa, savoury spice and a distinct mineral saltiness. Juicy acidity and fine tannins give it freshness, structure and impressive length. - Aaron C
Les Fruits is the winemaking project of Tim Stock, using organically and biodynamically farmed grapes sourced from the Adelaide Hills and Barossa Valley. Produced in a shed in the Basket Range, the winemaking is simple and minimal. All wines are matured on lees in old French oak barrels of varying sizes, with nothing added apart from minimal sulphur at racking and/or bottling. All of the wines are bottled unfined and unfiltered.
