Single site Malbec and Nebbiolo Rosé from Benalla, Victoria. Handpicked in early March 2020, before being whole bunch pressed to tank for natural settling. The juice was then transferred to a fermentation tank where natural yeast fermented the juice to dryness.
The wine was naturally stabilised over winter in the tank until it was ready for bottling. A small amount of sulphur was added prior to bottling; the wine was then transferred to the bottling line, unfiltered and unfined.
The wine pours a salmon pink colour, outlined with orange hues. A slight haze may still remain in bottle. The wine displays aromas of strawberries and cream, with a hint of watermelon. It is soft and delicate on the palate, while still maintaining freshness. – Site Fermentation Project by Hop Nation
