Lethbridge Yellow NV 500ml
Made predominantly from Geelong grown Savagnin, the grapes were whole bunch pressed and fermented in barrel. After the initial fermentation took place, we let the barrels ullage allowing a natural flor yeast to grow on top of the wine. Over the course of 7 years this flor consumed the alcohol & nutrients in the wine creating nutty, lemon zest flavours. All the while the oxidative ageing created flavours of walnut, almond and mushroom. Mainly from vintages '13, '14 and '15, blended together to balance the youthful zest and aged nutty characters, this is a delicious drop best enjoyed with an aged hard cheese or comté souffle.
"From a tiny, 0.1ha Savagnin vineyard in Waurn Ponds which was originally thought to be albariño. Mainly from '13 and kept under flor for seven years. A very bright gold with green tinges. Ray's homage to Vin Jaune from the Jura and a delicious one at that. Dry, textured, gently oxidative and nutty, finishing saline and long. Love the label, natural beeswax seal and rustic Calvados bottle, too! 500ml" 96 Points, PR Halliday Wine Companion
