{"product_id":"longhop-cabernet-sauvignon","title":"Longhop Old Vine Grenache","description":"Great wine begins in the vineyard—and for Longhop nothing is more important.\r\n\r\nOur vineyards are unique, remnant plantings that have mostly survived urban expansion and the pursuit of other agricultural profits. They also escaped the vine pull schemes that were popular during the 1980s. These government sponsored schemes saw old, low yielding vines uprooted with the help of subsidies and replaced by cash crops of vegetables and wheat. In some instances vast tracts of old vine shiraz was replaced by chardonnay! What a waste.\r\n\r\nThe remaining small vineyards are true masterpieces of wine grape flavour, weathered, gnarly and magnificent in their defiance of commercial expansion. Hand made wines Wine made by flavour not by numbers, is one way of describing our approach to winemaking. Its a year round, hands on approach that makes our wine unique. The hard work never seems to end but seeing the wines evolve over time is truly rewarding.","brand":"The Melbourne Wine Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46331000324315,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0731\/5197\/1547\/files\/longhop-old-vine-grenache-adelaide-plains.webp?v=1757659047","url":"https:\/\/themelbwinestore.com.au\/products\/longhop-cabernet-sauvignon","provider":"The Melbourne Wine Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
