Sourced from a patchwork of older sites in Riverland, with back-burners of shiraz (4%) and mataro (1%) in the mix. Wild fermented in large neutral oak with a good seasoning of whole bunches. No fining or filtering with the aim of retaining the integrity of fruit while promoting its natural energy. Sappy, fruity and punchy. Full-bodied, yet you would hardly know it. Nothing at all heavy here. Drinks like a candied pinot, reeling off notes of rosehip, maraschino cherry and Seville orange before a bristle of bunchy tannins concludes. A little torrefied, needing a chill for savoriness. Drink now. Screw cap.
