Description

The 2024 Penny's Hill Yeenunga Grenache is a single-vineyard McLaren Vale Grenache sourced from 52-year-old bush vines planted at around 170 metres elevation. The nose is perfumed with red cherry, raspberry and cranberry, joined by rose petal, dried herbs and savoury spice.

On the palate, it is layered and finely structured, with vibrant red fruit, fresh acidity and focused tannins. 30% whole bunch fermentation adds complexity, while maturation on lees in concrete eggs and seasoned French oak puncheons builds texture without masking the fruit.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for those who enjoy refined McLaren Vale Grenache with fragrant red fruit, savoury detail and fine tannins. Enjoy now or cellar through around 2030. Ideal with chargrilled lamb, roast duck, mushroom risotto or Mediterranean-style vegetables.

About the region

South Australia · McLaren Vale

South Australia grows more wine than any other Australian state, and its subregions behave almost like separate countries. Barossa and Eden Valley give Shiraz and Riesling, McLaren Vale leans to Grenache, Clare Valley to dry Riesling, Adelaide Hills to Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, and Coonawarra to Cabernet on red terra rossa soil. Strict quarantine has kept phylloxera out, so some vineyards still work vines planted in the nineteenth century.
