Description

Blankbottle Autumn Equinox 2022

Grape Varietals & Region: All based around the Autumn Equinox theory, which is mad enough but here we see a blend of Weisser Riesling, Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc from ELGIN... yeah, you read that correctly!

There is an old theory that the best vineyards ripen at the Autumn Equinox. Before the days of soil analysis and drones winemakers would decide what was planted where by seeing what ripens at the Autumn Equinox. So Syrah in Cote Rotie would ripen around the 20th of September for example (although things are changing slightly now with climate change).

In the Southern Hemisphere this is around the 20th of March so Pieter selected grapes that were harvested around this date that were at optimal ripeness.

Taste Profile: It's sappy, intense and very stony, with pear, lemon zest and lanolin notes and layers of intrigue and complexity

Winemaking Process: Made in a combination of Amphora and old French Oak, spend a year on the lees.
