Best Murray Darling Region Wine |
A little grubby on the palate honey dew and melon. Interesting texture a little mola toffee charter on finish. |
great concentration, beautiful texture and crunchiness. |
Developed and waxy. Lacks balance. Nice textural finish. Opens in the glass. A tad bitter. |
Savoury and nutty, silky on the palate, nice drinkability and tannin balance. Lacks some complexity or drive |

Grapes were destemmed and fermented in open fermenter, plunged daily until dry then filled into amphora and rested there untouched for 8 months. Pressed into stainless steel to naturally settle then bottled in December. |
