2024 Yalumba The Tri-Centenary Grenache

The 2024 Yalumba The Tri-Centenary Grenache is a single-vineyard Barossa Valley Grenache that pays tribute to some of the region's oldest surviving vines. Sourced from historic bush vines, this wine showcases the vibrant fruit character and aromatic complexity for which Barossa Grenache is increasingly recognised. The nose reveals lifted aromas of raspberry, red cherry and wild strawberry, complemented by subtle floral notes, dried herbs and gentle spice.

On the palate, it is medium-bodied and finely textured, with bright red berry flavours supported by silky tannins and fresh acidity. Layers of raspberry, cherry and spice unfold across a balanced, elegant framework, while restrained oak influence allows the fruit and vineyard character to remain the focus. The finish is long, savoury and detailed, with impressive purity and finesse.

Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic choice for those who enjoy expressive, old-vine Grenache with both freshness and complexity. Enjoy it now for its vibrant fruit profile or cellar over the next 8–12 years as additional savoury nuances emerge. Pair with roast lamb, duck, chargrilled pork, Mediterranean-inspired dishes or mushroom-based cuisine.
