The 2024 Yangarra Estate Vineyard Ovitelli Grenache is a premium single-block Grenache from Block 30 at Yangarra Estate in Blewitt Springs, McLaren Vale. The 2-hectare block was planted in 1946 and sits at approximately 205 metres elevation in deep, weathered sandy soils. These dry-grown old bush vines produce naturally low-yielding fruit with exceptional perfume, concentration and elegance. The vineyard is certified organic and biodynamic.
The 2024 growing season began with a normal wet winter followed by a dry spring. Unexpected rainfall during December and January supported healthy vine growth and consistent berry development, while warm conditions through February and early March encouraged flavour and sugar ripening. The fruit was hand-picked on 12 March and selectively berry sorted.
The Grenache was 100% destemmed and crushed before being transferred directly into 675-litre ceramic eggs. Fermentation was conducted with gentle hand plunging, and the wine remained on skins for approximately three months, creating exceptional depth and tannin while maintaining the naturally fragrant character of the old-vine fruit. No pressings were used. The wine was matured exclusively in ceramic eggs for a total of 11 months, with no oak influence, before being bottled in February 2025.
The finished wine is a highly perfumed and elegant expression of Blewitt Springs Grenache, combining the intensity of the warm 2024 vintage with the freshness and structure of Yangarra’s sandy old-vine site. Its extended ceramic-egg maturation emphasises purity, fine tannins and palate focus, resulting in a supple yet tightly coiled wine with excellent cellaring potential.
