Purple Hands Planta Circa Ancestor Vine Grenache 750ml

Vintage 2018

95 points Gary Walsh: “This is Grenache in silky smooth form with dense raspberry and cherry flavour, baking spices and rose oil perfume. It’s fluid and gentle, with tannin that feels like stroking suede, succulence and volume of flavour, though it keeps itself trim, especially on the finish where a handful of dried herb and tannin grips surely."

95 points. James Halliday. 

The Planta Circa wines are sourced from 125+ year old vines, and the Cabernet vines are some of oldest on own roots still producing fruit in the world today.

Bright crimson colour leads to aromas of raspberry, cherry, earth, sweet spice with herbal hints from the whole clusters. Palate is lively and fleshy with tannins giving a crunchy texture. Excellent flavour with persistent sweet red berry flavours combined with a soft gentle finish that gives a wine that you can enjoy now or over the next 10 years.
