2020 Bosman Grenache Noir Nature & Sun Grenache Noir
2020 Bosman Grenache Noir Nature & Sun Grenache Noir
Grape: Grenache Noir
Region: Western Cape < South Africa
Vineyard/cellar stats: Certified organic farming; destemmed, 3-day maceration then pressed into stainless for 3 months before bottling unfined/unfiltered, with minimal added SO2; 13%
Winemaker: Natasha Williams
Spicy, fresh chillable Grenache, from a fabulous BIPOC woman winemaker in South Africa? Yes, please, to all of this! Founded in the 18th Century in South Africa, Bosman is in its 8-generation, now 26%-Black-owned, with Natasha Williams, a Black woman winemaker. Farming is certified organic, and the Grenache Noir for this wine comes from a single vineyard called Gesamentlike Wei (communal pasture). The maceration is super short - just 3 days - so the color is a pale, translucent ruby, begging the question, "rosé, or red?" But the palate is deeper and more structured than you'd expect, definitely not the average glou glou, but still quaffable and sprightly. Delicate raspberry, red plum and forest fruit with good acidity and soft tannins -- all good things for food pairing. Put a little chill on your bottle and drink with burgers, salmon or tacos.
