Tasting Notes
Whole bunch fermented SB, bottled in August after priming with sweet grape juice from the same pick. Paw paw, mango lassie, and white pepper aromas are joined in the palate by grapefruit and prominent orange. Digging deeper unearths turmeric, dried sage, and butter. Released with a healthy sediment. Chill well prior to opening. - Winery Note
Established in 1999 by brothers Brian and Kevyn Joy, their respective son and nephew, Leighton Joy, now calls the shots.
The vineyard is nestled in the central Victorian high country amongst state forest and grazing pastures, and is managed by viticulturist Graeme Miles organically. Inviting the visiting grazers to help maintain unwanted growth between the vines, and incorporating methods such as composting and under-vine mulching to care for the red sandy and clay loam soils, the roots of the vines run deep, and yields are low, whilst fruit quality is high. - Pete L
