Chalk Hill Alpha Crucis Grenache 2021
The 2021 Alpha Crucis Blewitt Springs Grenache is a refined expression of McLaren Vale's Grenache, sourced from 80-year-old bush vines in the sandy soils of Blewitt Springs. This wine showcases vibrant aromas of kirsch, lilac, thyme, and mint, leading to a medium-bodied palate brimming with red raspberry, red liquorice, and Mediterranean herbs. Bright acidity and polished tannins contribute to an almost crunchy texture, culminating in a long, fine finish laced with alpine herbs and shades of amaro. The cool 2021 vintage imparts elegance and clarity, making this Grenache both approachable now and suitable for cellaring until 2029.
