Produced from the old bush vine Grenache planted by Colin Hugo in 1951. This low yielding 4 Acre block produces distinctive fruit with soft raspberry characters. Only the best selected rows are handpicked and blended with the pepper and plum of Hugo estate grown shiraz to produce this silky smooth hand crafted wine.
