SKU:2022 | Barossa Valley | Grenache Carignan
The 2022 Hoffmann DV Grenache Carignan is a vibrant and aromatic blend that truly reflects the Barossa Valley's renowned winemaking expertise.
As grower Adrian Hoffmann puts it, “The vintage tells me what needs to be made each year,” and the 2022 vintage speaks volumes. With fragrant Satsuma plums, raspberry, chocolate, and aniseed on the nose, this wine is concentrated yet light on its feet. A fresh, detailed profile of fruit runs through this wine, making it perfect for Spring and Summer sipping or pairing with a cheese and charcuterie platter.
With its fine acidity and balance, this wine is equally enjoyable now or can be cellared until 2037.
The 2022 Hoffmann DV Grenache Carignan can be enjoyed now for its vibrant fruit and freshness or cellared up to 2037 for further complexity. Its fine acidity and balance make it ideal for aging.
Meet the maker: Adrian Hoffmann
Sixth generation and current custodian of the Hoffmann Vineyard Adrian grew up on the property spending a lot of time with his grandfather, Gordon. Fortunately for Adrian, this time together meant that Gordon shared his deep-rooted knowledge of the district, the family farm, and farming. He also encouraged Adrian to learn on the job, tolerating mistakes and allowing him to learn from them.
He possesses a rare source of multi-generational, viticulture knowledge – an innate understanding of the dirt, climate, vines – which he complements with the latest research, a marketing focus, and a commitment to continually developing the vineyard.
