Wines by KT are small, lovingly cared for parcels of fruit that have traditional techniques used in their creation. I’m passionate about the township of Watervale 5452 and am working with dry grown, sustainably farmed vineyards in the area. With gentle care from grapegrower to winemaker, working with both organic and biodynamic principles, it’s my intention to produce wines with drinkability and personality.
The Peglidis vineyard has been carefully tended by the same custodians for the last forty six years and is an important wine growing source for wines by KT. This dry Riesling and its intense fruit flavour, shows graceful power and is balanced with juicy acidity.
The hand picked fruit from the Peglidis vineyard, which is focused on natural farming, is the eleventh release from this vineyard. With delicate floral spice and succulent, fleshy citrus fruit, this wine displays all the fine hallmarks of the Watervale region.
The hand picking and careful bunch selection from the 2019 vintage has produced great reward. Sealed with a screwcap to ensure integrity of product, you can be confident that this wine will continue to reward you with careful cellaring!
Mattinson and I tasted through a selection of wines produced by people who’ve worked at Wirra Wirra, at the winery of Wirra Wirra last Friday. He didn’t sit next to me though. I hand wrote my notes, which makes them hard to read, even for me. This was one of my top three wines, so I’ll write up the top three.
Lime and kaffir lime leaf, perfume and stony things. It’s juicy and full of limey goodness, pure acidity, zesty fringes, plenty of crunch and spice through the finish, and again that stony feel as it goes. Texture is a highlight throughout, and indeed, it’s what you might call a lightning strike of a wine; it’s that flash.
