Saltram Winemaker’s Selection Grenache 2021
No history of the Barossa Valley or the Australian wine industry is complete without the mention of Saltram. Established in 1859 by William Salter & Sons, Saltram wines have a proud history of more than 160 years for quality winemaking, innovation and a commitment to the Barossa region. An immigrant from England, William Salter was one of the first people to purchase land in the newly opened land survey known as the Barossa Valley. He then built a stone house for his family, naming it Mamre Brook which still stands today at the home of Saltram.
The Saltram Winemaker’s Selection Barossa Valley Grenache was crafted from a Single “Survivor’ Vineyard situated in Tanunda, Barossa Valley. The Winemaker's Selection was introduced to allow rare and unique parcels of fruit to remain separate so that they can show their true colours. Senior winemaker Alex MacKenzie believes Old Vine Grenache produces wine of great depth and character, and an ability to make complex aromatic and textured wines.
