2024 Aphelion The Confluence Grenache is a vibrant expression of McLaren Vale Grenache, crafted by Aphelion Wine Co., a producer dedicated to showcasing the purity and elegance of Grenache from some of the region’s most distinctive old-vine sites. The Confluence reflects the meeting of multiple vineyard parcels, bringing together fruit intensity and structural finesse.

The 2024 vintage opens with lifted aromas of red cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry, layered with notes of rose petal, white pepper and dried herbs. On the palate, bright red berry fruit is supported by silky tannins and lively acidity, with hints of cranberry, spice and savoury complexity adding depth. The finish is fresh, elegant and finely balanced.

Expressive and beautifully perfumed, The Confluence Grenache highlights the modern style of McLaren Vale Grenache - vibrant, refined and driven by purity of fruit.

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.
