2021 Lloyd Brothers Estate Grenache Shiraz Mataro

The 2021 Estate Blend is produced from grapes grown on the Lloyd Brothers McLaren Vale Estate. A blend of Grenache (65%) hand-picked from the bush vines located a few steps from our winery, Shiraz (30%) from Block 9 and Manor Block which are well suited to this style with lovely bright red fruit and a hint of dark chocolate. A small percentage of estate bush vine Mourvèdre (5%) adds some spice and lift to the blend. Each variety was picked and fermented separately in small open fermenters, then pressed to seasoned French oak. After 9 months the best barrels were selected to create the Estate Blend GSM.

Lloyd Brothers is a family owned winery and olive grove located in the heart of McLaren Vale. Lloyd Brothers wines and olives are handcrafted to highlight the very best of the fruit grown on our Adelaide Hills and McLaren Vale Estates. The 65 hectare McLaren Vale Estate is home to the cellar door, winery and purpose built barrel hall which plays host to impressive festivals, weddings and events.
