Longhop 'Old Vine' Grenache 2023 is a distinguished expression of Adelaide Plains’ rare old vine Grenache, sourced from survival plantings dating back to the 1950s. Crafted by Tim Freeland and Domenic Torzi, this wine embodies a non-interventional winemaking philosophy that allows the natural character of the grapes to shine through, resulting in a lush and generous profile bursting with vibrant flavors.
This medium-bodied Grenache captivates with rich notes of plum and raspberry, layered delicately with hints of dried herbs. The palate is supported by supple, fine tannins that provide structure without overpowering the wine’s innate elegance. Its balanced acidity and complexity make it a versatile companion for a variety of dishes.
Perfectly suited to complement Asian cuisine, roasted meats, and seasonal vegetables, this wine enhances dining experiences with its depth and finesse. It has earned a Silver Medal at the 2023 Sydney Royal Wine Show, a testament to its exceptional quality and value.
Longhop’s commitment to preserving heritage vines and minimal intervention results in wines that are both authentic and expressive. The Adelaide Plains region, known for its warm climate and well-drained soils, contributes to the concentration and vibrancy found in this vintage.
