Gold Medal 2020 Langtons Yarra Valley Wine Show
Straw in colour with a pale straw hues. The aroma is complex and intense – struck match, white flowers, lemon leaf, white peach and spice. Depth and volume. The palate is pure and fine. There is a great depth of fruit that builds in intensity as it travels acros s the mid-palate. The acidity is fine and fresh and keeps the palate focused. Complexing textural elements of the barrel fermentation interweave with the fruit and acidity to complete the package. The wine is in a beautiful place now but has a long life to live.
A very small make. Hand-picked, chilled overnight, whole-bunch pressed to puncheons for wild ferment, aged on lees for 10 months before transfer to stainless steel and a further 6 months maturation. Joyously concentrated, but self-contained.
