$25.00
COSA NOSTRA. n. [Italian, literally: our thing]
Pear. Citrus. Almond. Textured.
93 POINTS “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.“ Huon Hooke, The Real Review. 22/3/2020
Winemaking
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.
