Tasting Note Clear green straw in colour. The wine opens with citrus blossom, custard and white peach with a dash of lemon juice and white pepper spice. The palate is crisp and fine with citrus and mineral flavours that lead to a moreish finish, prompting another sip.
Terroir There is just over a hectare of Grenache Blanc planted at our Yalumba Tri-Centenary vineyard, nestled in between the multiple blocks of Grenache Noir. The vineyard features deep sandy loam layers underlain with red-brown clay. These soils are generally deep and hold large volumes of water within their pores, which easily provides water early in the season, essential for good growth. As temperatures increase and evaporation levels rise, moisture levels in the sand decrease rapidly, the vine is able to draw moisture from the underlying clay.
Best Enjoyed With Enjoy with marinated olives, crusty bread and dips or grilled haloumi with a squeeze of lemon.
