{"product_id":"commune-of-buttons-sable-syrah-grenache-2024","title":"Commune of Buttons Sable Syrah Grenache 2024","description":"\u003cp\u003eCommune of Buttons is the family label of Jasper and Sophie Button, born from 3.5 hectares of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay planted in Basket Range in the Adelaide Hills thirty years ago. Jasper now manages 4.2 hectares of vines using organic and biodynamic practices: soil regeneration through cultivation, mulch, teas and biodynamic composts; green and regenerative pruning; and dry farming in mature vines. Vintages in Piemonte, Burgundy, Jura and Beaujolais have shaped his approach in the cellar, picking on natural acidity, gentle slow extractions, cool fermentations and minimal racking. All wines are bottled via gravity onsite, and sulphur is added only when absolutely necessary, never exceeding 20 ppm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSable is a 40% Grenache and 60% Syrah blend from a single vineyard site in Blewitt Springs, where 60 to 80 year old vines sit on deep, sandy soils. The fruit was hand harvested, sorted and destemmed with 10% whole bunches retained. Maceration took place over three weeks before 18 months of maturation in large old foudre. The warmer conditions of 2024 permitted better ripeness in the skins and stems, giving the wine more depth and more refined tannins than the 2023 vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGentle extraction has made for a light frame and structure. There is a plum and violet core, the tannins are fine from the sandy soils, and there is a refreshing lift with a long line of natural acidity. A wine of quiet authority.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"appellance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50497346535617,"sku":null,"price":42.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0843\/3428\/0897\/files\/Commune_of_Buttons_Sable_Syrah_Grenache_2024.webp?v=1786686522","url":"https:\/\/appellance.com\/products\/commune-of-buttons-sable-syrah-grenache-2024","provider":"Appellance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
