This is a big deal. The term 'Ancestor Vines' is reserved only for vineyards planted over 125 years ago. This places them as right up there with some of the oldest living grenache vines in the entire world, and in this case, thanks to the meticulous work of Maverick Wines, they absolutely live up to the hype.

Why do we love this wine?
As a general rule, the older the vines, the better the wines. But why? Well, the simplified answer is that as grape vines mature they begin to produce less fruit. As a result, all of the energy, all of the sun and soil, all of the flavour is condensed into less grapes, so you end up with highly concentrated, perfectly balanced fruit with the capacity to create extremely low quantity, extremely high quality wines that could out-last religion. An exquisite texture unfolds across your palate, each sip revealing new depths while maintaining that stunning fruit purity that separates the good from the genuinely great. Persistent, velvety, and utterly mesmerising - the kind that of wine that lingers on your palate long after the glass is empty, and lingers on your mind even longer.
