Tasting Notes

Aroma

Orange rind, spiced honey, creamy lemon butter and olive brine. Still with the youthfulness from the younger wine, but a depth and complexity brought by the older 2021 vintage.

Maturation

Aged for 18 months before blending.

Palate

Cashew, cinnamon spice, Sicilian olive and creamed honey. White nectarine adds juiciness and fleshiness. There is a pithy, briny character which lengthens and enlivens the palate. Mouth-watering and complex.

Vinification

This non-vintage wine comprises material from the 2022 (60%) and 2021 (40%) vintages. Savagnin was fermented in a neutral oak to create a base wine onto which three strains of flor yeast were introduced.

Vintage Notes

Cool and elevated with high winter rainfall and long ripening periods.

Region Notes

Fruit is taken from the Mosquito Hill Vineyard in the Mount Jagged area of Southern Fleurieu. The temperate summer and cooling sea breezes make it the ideal place to grow high acid, pristine whites. Fruit is dry-grown in soils of sandy loam over limestone.

    Bright, medium yellow colour with a flor-yeast bouquet that brings to mind dry sherry and Jura Vin Jaune. It seems fresh and youthful with floral, stone-fruit and creamy yeasty aromas, as well as the typical aldehyde flor character. In the mouth it is crisp and dry, medium-intense and has a soft/juicy texture that suggests sweetness, but it finishes cleanly dry. An interesting and novel wine that would be good with cooked-curd semi-hard cheeses. Points: 90/100
