100% Estate Grown Grenache
Hesperus 2017 is from the tenth harvest of the De Portal Wine Trail Estate. The grapes were picked in October and remained in concrete fermentation tanks for 3 months, then transferred into neutral Hungarian Oak for 22 months. This year’s wine has a distinctive first palate. It’s light with fresh berry flavor leading to a rounded middle, revealing a textured minerality before finishing with a long dry plum taste.
