2019 Inkwell 'Dub Style' No. 18 Red Remix McLaren Vale, Australia

Winemaker Notes:
Inkwell Wines is recognised as one of the 50 Best Vineyards in Australia for our zealous organic and regenerative approach to winegrape growing. Head wine maker Dr. Irina Santiago-Brown has been recognised as the top woman viticulturist in Australia in 2015 and, as part of her PhD thesis, is the author of the sustainability system that has been adapted as the Australia national system.

All Inkwell wines are made in one tonne fermenters with wild yeast completing fermentation with no other additions prior to gentle basket pressing. Pretty much pre-historic technique in a fanatically clean environment.

Remix Series:
DubStyle's Remix series is about making remixed versions of old classics like GSM using Grenache as a common theme and other varieties for variety. The focus is on approachability and “pairability" with a wide range of food by keeping alcohol low and texture high. Each Remix is from a limited release of 100-300 cases in order to provide customers with something continually both familiar (the brand, concept, Grenache) and new (other varieties, different varieties and textures) as they follow the ever changing Remix journey.

The coastal sandy soils in special parts of McLaren Vale are recognised as one of the best places on earth to ripen Grenache. Our Grenache is planted on a 15,000 year old sand dune in view of the ocean 90 metres below and 2 miles away. Remix is all fermented wild and without additions at Inkwell and aged in old / neutral hogsheads just 8-10 months prior to bottling to keep the emphasis on freshness.

The 2019 Remix No.18 is 60% Grenache, 15% each of Mataro and Touriga and 10% Shiraz. While the GS and M components were grown at Inkwell, the Touriga was grown in the Riverland, hence the South Australia designation rather than McLaren Vale.
