Drink 2025–2035
The 2015 The Tri-Centenary Grenache spent 41 days on the skins, and with this vintage, the time at this part of the journey begins to extend. The wine is still matured in old French oak hogsheads at this time. Here, curiously, the wine shows some development, and a sweet edge to the fruit begins to creep in. It has vanilla bean, or aged leather, or something of its ilk. The wine is savory and the tannins both profuse and dry, but there are no hard edges—this is soft and pliable. At 10 years from harvest, the wine has softened and is fine. The berries were small this year due to conditions during spring, and this is in line with the general attitude of the red wines in the Barossa: they were firm and the wines excellent. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under natural cork.
