A serious GSM with dark brooding notes, significant fruit weight and ample supporting tannins. The minimalistic organic practices that have been adopted in the vineyard bolster the earthy, ferrous notes in the wine which are immediately to the fore. As the veil starts to lift, the savoury notes are met by waves of generous berry fruits….blueberry, plum, cassis. Hints of spice add an altogether new dimension and accentuate the long, lingering finish. An incredibly versatile wine that would be equally suitable paired with casseroles and curries, as it would be alongside an antipasto platter.

Behind the Name: Innocent weed is far from innocent. Favouring the same sandy soils in which our Grenache thrives, its seeds are covered in very sharp thorns which stick to passersby and spread throughout the vineyard. Without the use of herbicides, these plants and others that continually grow add organic material to the earth, increasing the microflora to foster a healthier, ‘alive’ soil. This in turn means better grapes, more reflective of the terroir.
