AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

The Frankland River sub-region of the Great Southern is a premier red wine growing area of Western Australia. The plantings of grenache vines in the region are sparse and improving quickly as the vines age. The fruit for this wine is from the Riversdale Vineyard which, due to its north facing orientation and soil profile, delivers exceptionally high-quality fruit.

After picking and sorting the grenache, fermentation took place in a small open fermenter, and maceration was gentle, lasting fourteen days with minimal intervention. The wine was then aged in low toast French oak barriques for ten months. The wine was bottled in February 2024. It was then aged in bottle prior to release.

This grenache subtly requests your attention by drawing you to its perfumed red berry, cranberry-like, aromatics. It also shows delicate secondary aromas of spices, and earthy and herbal undertones which will continue to develop with further bottle aging.

The medium bodied palate showcases a delicate embrace of fine-grained tannins, typical of grenache, noticeable from the outset. Transitioning smoothly, the wine offers a voluptuous mouthfeel revealing intricate savoury notes and the return of those fine tannins in the long, dry finish. This wine is ideally savoured alongside good food.

About Singlefile Wines

Singlefile Wines represents our family’s pursuit of excellence. Every wine in our range embodies a drive to craft wines of exceptional quality from Western Australia’s Great Southern wine region.

At Singlefile we strive to excel in every task that comes before us. From rigorously analysing soil composition and climatic variations through to vigour in the winery, Singlefile’s approach to winemaking is nothing short of singular.

Singlefile’s wines are expressions of the unique terroir of the Great Southern wine region, which imparts distinctive attributes to the parcels of fruit that alight in our winery. We hand pick sites that best suit each of our varieties. Invariably, these sites are premium cool-climate settings, boasting supreme conditions to grow grapes of outstanding quality.

Singlefile fruit is treated as naturally as possible, allowing the beauty of the grape to shine in the final wine. In the winery, we also embrace the “less is more” practice, where wines are allowed to develop with minimal intervention.
