2006 Glaymond El Abuelo Grenache - Museum Release

Please note: this back vintage wine has been professionally cellared in ideal conditions at Nicks for many years. However, due to the age and natural bottle variation of older wines, we cannot guarantee that every bottle will be perfect and we are unable to offer refunds or replacements for bottles that may show faults or variation. Although we doubt there will be faults - please purchase with this in mind. Due to the age of this wine, some bottles may show signs of advanced maturity and we recommend enjoying it sooner rather than further cellaring.

The 2006 Glaymond El Abuelo Grenache showcases the remarkable potential of old-vine Grenache from the Barossa Valley. Crafted by sixth-generation vigneron Damien Tscharke, the fruit comes from vineyards planted in 1961 by his grandfather, Gerhard Tscharke, on the Western Barossa Ridge in Seppeltsfield, surrounded by renowned producers including Torbreck, Greenock Creek and Kalleske. “El Abuelo”, Spanish for “the grandfather”, pays tribute to Gerhard and the family's winemaking heritage. Made using traditional open-top fermentation, extended maceration and basket pressing, this Grenache reflects the exceptional concentration and depth achieved in the outstanding 2006 vintage.
