Tasting Notes
100% destemmed, the juice was left macerating on skins for a full 17 days with hand plunging daily. It was then pressed into old 10+ year old French barriques where it lay untouched on its fermentation lees right up until bottling. An explosive nose typical of Moscato, fresh tropical fruit marmalade, lemon myrtle, spice, with that same tropical fruit carrying through on the palate. Finishing dry, savoury and so delicious. - Distributor Note
Architect by day, winemaker by night, David Caporaletti is calculated and precise as much as he is rogue and experimental in his winemaking. Having made wine fo the last few year, David shows mind-boggling intuition with his 'less-is-more' mantra. With fruit sourced from the Adelaide Hills and Wrattonbully, AOW wines show restraint in all the right places - both in skin contact time, use of oak and extraction of tannin. Another great reason why The Hills is proving to be a breeding ground for young winemakers with access to great fruit, sensibility and a taste for adventure in their craft. - Distributor Note
