Smallfry 'Jellyfish' Grenache 2024

Waynes words -  The fifth iteration of this wine has brought little tweaking. Grenache from our 60 yo vines shines. My brief is to capture the vibrant fruit without being too boozy, something of a challenge. Just 4 days on skins and bottled with less than 35ppm sulphites. Arguably our hero variety, there is a degree of hype around Grenache grown on sandy soils that will be a lovely realization for everyone. Garnacha as it was originally know is drought tolerant, heat tolerant and just so well suited to our terroir.

Bright red purple heavier than a rose.  Strawberries and graphite with a herbal note.  Fruit sweetness up front, very soft tannin but nevertheless drying like licking a bluestone on the finish.  If ever there was a wine for paella this is it, structure and freshness rolled into one.
