The grapes for Baw Baw Red were grown by us to organic practices at the Wild Dog Vineyard in Warragul South.
50% Cabernet, 40% Merlot, 10% Riesling.
The Cabernet and Merlot were picked early and underwent a short eight day maceration on skins after being destemmed.
The Riesling component spent 3 weeks on skins and after being pressed was added to the red ferment. The wine remained in stainless steel tanks on full lees.
With notes of raspberry and cassis this light red is almost like pinot and does well either chilled or at room temperature.
Our wines are wild ferment, unfiltered, unfined and vegan friendly – Producers notes
