The Grenache Gris and Grenache Blanc bring both aromatic lift and textural depth, shaped by meticulous hand harvesting and small-batch winemaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe V range represents the most detailed and contemplative side of Vanguardist, with a focus on finesse, layering and tension. Fermentations are handled with restraint and intent, with élevage in foudre, older oak and amphora contributing subtle structural complexity while preserving purity of fruit and site expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 2025 release opens with lifted aromas of white peach, pear skin, citrus oil, fennel seed and orange blossom, layered with subtle spice, crushed herbs and a faint saline edge. The palate is finely textured and linear, combining bright acidity with gentle phenolic grip that gives shape and length without weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is a quiet intensity running through the wine, building in layers rather than force, finishing long, dry and finely savoury with a distinct mineral clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA precise and elegant Australian white that showcases Grenache in its most restrained and detailed form, defined by purity, structure and site transparency.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Appellance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50212235575489,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0843\/3428\/0897\/files\/25VGrisblanc_1296x_a138fc43-57fc-4018-a5ab-d4aba73a71cf.webp?v=1778731070","url":"https:\/\/appellance.com\/products\/vanguardist-v-grenache-gris-blanc-2025","provider":"Appellance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
