Personalised Oliver's Taranga RW Grenache 2021 14.5% 750ML

In 1839 William and Elizabeth Oliver travelled to South Australia from Scotland and eventually settled in 1841 on land at McLaren Vale. Whitehill and Taranga farms, the names given to the northern and southern sections of this land, are located 2 km north of McLaren Vale overlooking the township. Taranga is a corruption of the aboriginal word Tarangk, meaning ‘the middle' which was used by the Kaurna, a local aboriginal tribe. Sheep and cattle were raised and orchards and vineyards were planted immediately upon arrival and the family prospered.

Crunchy red cherries, red currants, fresh forest air, ironstone and vanilla bean. Delicate woody spices, pine needle, mushroom and forest floor

VINTAGE NOTES
2021 was one of the best vintages we have ever had in McLaren Vale. After two years of very low crops and drought, 2021 was perfect in almost every way (apart from a global pandemic that is!). Glory to gorgeous Grenache!
