Critic reviews
James Halliday – "From old, unirrigated vines at Hickinbotham, in Clarendon.The only cuvée produced outside of Yangarra Estate. Destemmed, crushed and tipped into a ceramic egg where it remained on skins for 170 days. Gorgeous. Pinosity in spades. Noble bitterness. Lavender and white pepper. Pink grapefruit pulp and sapid, sour-cherry accents. Like the most glorious amaro with a slice of Sicilian orange, this plays a finessed card of consummate elegance, racy length, crunchy saline tannins and latent power. Brethren to Ovitelli in terms of shape, if not a bit looser and more flamboyant at the seams. A belly dancer in a souk of carnal desire. Scintillating, uber-aromatic grenache." - Ned Goodwin MW (Halliday Wine Companion)

Yangarra Estate Hickinbotham Clarendon Grenache 1.5L 2021
Description
Description
The Hickinbotham vineyard in Clarendon is owned by the same Jackson Family that own Yangarra. Pete Fraser makes the Shiraz wines from that block for the Hickinbotham super-premium releases. The same viticultural team works the vines on both sites. This isn't from the same sandy soils as the rest of the Yangarra Grenache wines but the quality and attention to detail is no different. This wine adds another highlight to the near peerless array of McLaren Vale Grenache produced by this amazing team. It's pure, vibrant, densely packed with tannin.
