50% Syrah & 50% Mataro from Fleurieu Peninsula given 42 days skin contact to enable bottling with lower SO2. Soft and juicy.
’The gist here is ‘free’ as in liberating the wine production team from more conventional methodology. There’s a reference to ‘traditional fermentation’ on the back label, but I don’t know what that means. Anyway, that aside, the wine has a good vibe to it. Packaging is bistro friendly too, though I can’t find a picture of that either. Jammy, sweet and ripe scents and flavours. Soft and supple to taste offering raspberry jubes, white pepper and toasty notes. A little extra tangy through the finish, but you could say ‘fresh’ too. Easy drinking, lively red of ready appeal.’
