Description
Lone Palm Vineyards Old Vine Grenache is a graceful and ethereal red wine produced in the iconic Barossa Valley of South Australia. Founded in 1992 in the hamlet of Marananga, Lone Palm Vineyards focuses on producing site-specific wines that reflect the authentic character of ancient Barossa terroirs. Sourced from 80 to 90 year-old vines, this handcrafted bottling showcases remarkable depth, vibrancy, and elegance through minimal-intervention winemaking.
Why You'll Love It
This wine offers a captivating, lifted alternative to heavier red styles, focusing on perfume, silkiness, and structural finesse. Combining fruit from the elevated western ridge at Seppeltsfield with the warmth of the Nuriootpa valley floor, it presents a masterclass in regional harmony. Natural fermentation with whole bunches and gentle maturation in seasoned French oak preserves its bright red fruit vitality, velvety tannins, and light-footed ethereal elegance.
Vineyard & Production
Fruit is hand-picked from three historic vineyard sites: two located on the western ridge at Seppeltsfield and one on the valley floor in Nuriootpa. Each plot is fermented separately using wild yeasts, incorporating 18 to 20 percent whole bunches alongside whole berries for enhanced aromatic complexity. Following a controlled 10 to 12 day fermentation, the wine is gently basket-pressed into seasoned French oak hogsheads. After aging for 12 months, the finest barrels are selected, blended, and bottled un-fined and unfiltered.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it displays a radiant ruby-garnet hue. The nose opens with an inviting bouquet of ripe black cherry aromas reminiscent of freshly squeezed juice, beautifully layered with subtle hints of cinnamon, sweet clove, and wild flowers. The palate is rich yet wonderfully lifted, delivering a pure core of bright red fruit framed by fine, supple tannins. It finishes long, elegant, and expressive, leaving a subtle trace of gamey complexity.
Perfect Pairings
With its vibrant acidity, silky texture, and delicate spice notes, this old-vine Grenache is a remarkably versatile food partner. It pairs magnificently with pink seared duck breast, sticky Chinese-style ribs, and spiced mutton curries. It is also an outstanding match for warm goat’s cheese salads, roasted pork tenderloin, and braised spring lamb.
