Tasting Notes

Aroma

There are aromas of nectarine, white peach & melon fruits coupled with roasted hazelnut and oak spice on the nose. Way-way off into the distance is the subtle hint of ginger and pink musk lolliesa unique character of this clone.

Maturation

Post fermentation the wine was matured in French oak for ten months prior to bottling to create depth and texture.

Palate

The palate displays citrus fruits, lemon curd and almond meal notes. Batonnage stirring has added texture to the palate, creating a wine with balance and complexity.

Vinification

The wine is a blend of both wild yeast and traditional barrel ferment with partial solids.

Cellaring Potential

While this wine is made to enjoy upon release, fur-ther maturation over 3 to 7 years will enable it to develop even more complexity, assuming satisfactory cellaring conditions.

Range Notes

With the ever-increasing globalisation of the wine industry, we, like you, could be forgiven for thinking we were all just pawns in the big wine company game. The release of the Pawn is a manifestation of our resolve to amend this situation by releasing wines hand crafted from small parcels of premium fruit from our Adelaide Hills Vineyards.

    This is a ripe, fleshy style, brimful of flavour, and along with it, personality. In the words of Keanu Reeves: who said romance is dead? This wine is all aswoon with grilled peach, roasted nuts and cedarwood flavour. It also has hot butter, honeysuckle and spice notes running joyfully throughout. It's a wine of flavour, weight and verve; it's a wine to kick up your heels with. Points: 94/100
