2019 Cosa Nostra Arneis
COSA NOSTRA. n. [Italian, literally: our thing]
Our Cosa Nostra wines are a clear example of our love for all things unique and different. Interesting blends, alternative varietals, relatively unknown regions. We literally want to create ‘our thing.’ Small batches of adventurous experimentation, teamed with our minimal winemaking philosophy to best capture the unique and intrinsic nature of these alternative varietals and blends.

Fruit was hand-picked from a single vineyard in the Yarra Valley. Grapes were whole bunch pressed. No press cuts were made as the pressings contain lovely phenolics and flavours helping to create a textural style. Cloudy juice then went into old barrels for fermentation, utilising a mixture of wild and aromatic yeasts. Post ferment the wine stayed in oak on full solids for 4 months. No fining agents used. Single filtration prior to bottling. Additional Notes: Suitable for vegans

Huon Hooke"Light yellow colour; the bouquet is attractively spicy, faintly nutty, and quite complex. The wine is rich and layered, medium-bodied and retains delicacy. A really delicious wine, with flavour that sustains interest. Fine and balanced, and great drinkability."
