Dry red Wine, made from 100% Grenache
Our Grenache is unfiltered and unfined and is thus a vegan friendly wine. Our style of Grenache lends itself to be enjoyed in the slightly warmer months of the year and is really enjoyable once it’s been chilled. Serve on a hot summer month at 14 – 15 degrees and in the winter at 18 degrees. For a vegan friendly pairing enjoy with Sweet potato & coconut curry and for the non-vegans the traditional Spanish pairing of Grenache and Rabbit is delicious
Smooth velvety tannins. 14.5% alc with a RS of 1.0g/L. Elegantly vibrant pale ruby coloured wine, rich yet medium bodied with peppery spice and earthiness. On the nose it’s clean with fresh strawberry fruit, black cherries and figs.
There’s a big trend for softer and lighter reds and our Grenache is exactly that. It’s a beautiful wine to have in the warmer summer months as the wine is enjoyed at it’s best slightly chilled. It’s easy to enjoy a glass or two of this wine on its own or with a lighter more summery dish. An added bonus to this wine is that it’s low in sulphur!
100% Grenache with all of the grapes from the Estate

Cape Town Insiders’ Review Of The Wine
There are few things that make me as happy as interesting single varietal wines. To me, the Lynx Grenache is everything that a good red wine should be. Let’s start with the branding – we’ve been having a lively discussion with friends for the last couple of weeks and the Lynx logo is sublime – classy, understated, elegant and creative. Much like the wines from the Lynx farm in Franschhoek. I’ve been a big fan of Lynx since trying their Xanache (a Grenache blend) and this straight Grenache is, in every way, as good a wine and the perfect companion for a winter’s night.
