🍷 How does McLaren Vale Grenache age?
We wondered… and now YOU can answer.

This weekend only, we’re throwing open the vault and pouring from our personal museum collection – bottles we’ve guarded like treasure, each one holding the story of a season past.

Not one, but four Grenache verticals await you, side by side, spanning vintages from 2017 to 2024. The kind of tasting that makes critics lean in and Masters of Wine nod in quiet appreciation – now it’s your turn.

✨ On pour:
• 8 vintages of Confluence Grenache (2017–2024)
• 6 vintages of Brini Single Site Grenache – including its early days as The Verdant (2017–18, 2021–24)
• 4 vintages of Wait Single Site Grenache (2021–24)
• 5 vintages of Rapture Grenache (2020–24)

We’ll guide you through the shifts in aroma, texture, and personality that time brings – from fresh-faced youth to graceful maturity.
