Tasting Notes
Vibrant, intense and rich in flavour, melded together by the oxidative handling (no sulfur/exposure of the wine to oxygen/air). Savagnin and chardonnay give the peach and pear type fruit tastes, with skins and the oxidative winemaking adding the fine chalky tannin mouthfeel. 12% alc. Complex. - Michael L
Manon is the label for Tim Webber and Monique Millton, farmed from their high altitude vineyard in the Adelaide Hills. Tim and Mon have a strong belief in working with nature, and have implemented a number of different programs to support this. Everything in the vineyard is done by hand, following biodynamic principles, they have begun to gradually remove introduced flora, and replant with native vegetation, as well as encouraging native animals, such as kangaroos, who keep the grasses under control, but don't damage the soils through compaction.
A similar philosophy is utilised in the winery, with everything carried out slowly and without any additions. Bunches are harvested by hand, carefully sorted and then allowed to ferment naturally, with indigenous yeasts. Left to settle over the winter months, the wines are finally bottled unfined and unfiltered. These are natural wines - a pure expression of their site and fruit.
