Smalltown Vineyards Clovella Mataro Grenache 2019 75cl J&B Rare Slightly brighter and a touchClovella is a field planting of roughly 60 40 Grenache and Mourvedre. It is a 40 year old vineyard from the Gomersal sub district of the Barossa Valley that Rolf Binder has been cultivating himself for many years. The wine spends 22 months in older French oak. The purpose of this wine is to show Mourvdre and Grenache with some development rather than the super juicy young bright Grenache of the moment. It starts with cassis, a nose full of promise.
