Description
The Beechworth ‘terroir’ has a distinctive fruit character of pear/peach fruit.The palate is quite rich with zesty acid line through to the finish.
The oak has minimal impact by using older French oak and mainly puncheons. The warm year has meant less citrus lift but has bran meal notes from the wild ferment and extended lees contact.Drinking well now but will improve with further bottle age. Enjoy with Seafood to light meats. Whole bunch pressing, wild ferment in new French oak have come together in spectacular fashion. The wine was fermented in 30% new French oak and the balance older, from a variety of cooperages.
