About the Cirillo 1850 Ancestor Vine Grenache 2015 750ml
The Cirillo 1850 Ancestor Vine Grenache 2015 is an extraordinary expression of Barossa Valley's winemaking heritage, crafted from some of the oldest Grenache vines in the world, planted in 1850. This iconic wine reflects the depth, elegance, and complexity achievable from ancient vines meticulously tended by generations of the Cirillo family.
Tasting Notes:
-
Appearance: Vibrant medium ruby with a clear rim.
-
Nose: Aromatically refined, offering lifted notes of red berries, wild strawberries, dried herbs, rose petals, and subtle earthy spice.
-
Palate: Medium-bodied yet richly textured. Silky tannins and bright acidity frame flavors of red cherry, raspberry, dried thyme, and a whisper of white pepper. The wine showcases remarkable finesse, purity of fruit, and a long, graceful finish.
Vineyard & Winemaking:
-
Vine Age: Over 170 years old (planted in 1850)
-
Region: Barossa Valley, South Australia
-
Winemaking: Gentle handling, minimal intervention, and aging in seasoned oak barrels to preserve varietal expression and terroir.
Food Pairing:
Pairs beautifully with roast duck, grilled lamb, Mediterranean dishes, and aged cheeses.
Cellaring Potential:
Superb aging potential – drink now or cellar for 15+ years to reveal even greater complexity.
