Description

The Grüner Veltliner makes up a tiny parcel of fruit from the Belbrook vineyard on the East Coast of Tasmania. Gently pressed into seasoned French barriques for indigenous fermentation, the wine was then transferred to stainless steel tanks for further élevage on lees before bottling.

Review

Light bright yellow with a nutty/toasty barrel-influenced bouquet, slight yeasty/passionfruit and straw/silage overtones. The wine is soft and full, round and texturally refined, with a lovely balance between fruity and savoury characteristics. There is richness and depth of flavour indicating good concentration while the wine retains refinement and subtlety. Delicious drinking—if not especially varietal.

Review

Grüner Veltliner from the Bellbrook vineyard on the East Coast of Tasmania, fermented wild in seasoned French barriques. Pale straw with beautiful aromas of white peach, grapefruit, freshly cut fennel, white pepper, almond blossom and crushed stone. Clarity and detail here with excellent tension, a slink of texture and a softly spiced finish that shows plenty of citrus and stone-fruited crunch and verve.

Tasting Profile

Nose
Immediately enticing notes of fresh fennel, white stone fruit and lime curd, underlined by classic nuances of savoury white pepper.
Palate
The palate is taught, and textural. Oak fermentation provides layers of baking spice and fresh almond notes, with lingering flavours reminiscent of Meyer lemon and winter pear.
