Fruit is sourced from two sites in Northern Yarra, Upper Ngumby and Wedgetail. Some cordial like Raspberry and Gala apple are spliced with blackberry leaf and blood plums. A lofty wine with crystalline acidity and some chewy front palate tannins. You are left with a coolness that indicates this is meant for refreshing hot spiced foods like Thai beef salads and hand flapping larb dishes. Could also be served slightly chilled for a very enjoyable picnic wine. Drink one and often.
