Why do we love this wine?
Planted in 2000 on a north-facing slope in Victoria’s Pyrenees, the Malakoff vineyard sits 350m above sea level on red, permeable clay. Warm days and cool nights build intense aromatics, fine tannin structure and natural acidity - the hallmarks of world-class Nebbiolo. Hand-harvested, the fruit made its way to the winery as whole bunches. Half was de-stemmed, the rest tipped straight into the fermenter intact. Gentle pump-overs and plunging carried through six weeks on skins, building savoury complexity and those trademark, long Nebbiolo tannins. Basket-pressed, settled overnight and matured in seasoned French oak for 14 months, the wine is all lifted florals, sour cherry, wild herb and fine, powdery grip. This is Australian Nebbiolo at its most authentic and age-worthy. Oh, and only 150 cases were ever made... better get a wriggle on!
