The 2025 Yalumba Vine Vale Grenache is a vibrant Barossa Valley Grenache sourced from the historic Vine Vale sub-region, renowned for producing elegant, aromatic expressions of the variety. Crafted by Yalumba, this wine highlights the purity of old-vine fruit with lifted aromas of wild raspberry, red cherry and strawberry, complemented by hints of rose petals, white pepper and subtle baking spice.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with silky tannins and bright natural acidity. Juicy flavours of red berries, plum and cranberry are layered with gentle spice and a savoury mineral edge, creating a refined, balanced wine with a long, fresh finish. Careful maturation in seasoned French oak preserves the vibrant fruit while adding subtle texture and complexity.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Barossa Grenache for those who enjoy elegant, fruit-driven reds with freshness and finesse. Best enjoyed over the next 5–8 years. Pair with roast duck, grilled lamb cutlets, chargrilled vegetables, mushroom dishes or a selection of charcuterie and semi-hard cheeses.
