The 2024 Yangarra Hickinbotham Grenache Magnum (1500ml) is a single-vineyard 100% Grenache from the historic Hickinbotham Clarendon Vineyard in McLaren Vale. Sourced from unirrigated bush vines planted in 1962, it shows fragrant red berries, cherry and floral notes with savoury spice and earthy mineral detail.
On the palate, it is vibrant and finely structured, with bright red fruit, fresh acidity and loose-knit tannins. Gentle wild fermentation and maturation in cocciopesto amphorae preserve the purity and detail of the old-vine Grenache.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for collectors who enjoy refined McLaren Vale Grenache with freshness and savoury complexity. The 1.5L magnum format is particularly well suited to cellaring. Ideal with roast lamb, grilled pork, duck, mushroom dishes or Mediterranean-style cooking.
