Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Mataro from Frankland River, Western Australia. The Mataro was sourced from Swinney’s Powderbark vineyard in Frankland River. This vineyard sits on ironstone soils and with excellent elevation. Meticulously grown at elevation in ironstone and loam soils the Mataro develops some amazing aromatics and a distinct ferrous character
Taste Profile: A nouveau style red made from Mourvèdre, light dry red that can be chilled. Aromatic nose of floral rose petal, sarsaparilla, boysenberry, mulberry, Sichuan pepper, tarragon with hints of wet ironstone rock. On the palate, it is dry with light, very approachable light, dusty tannins. A delicious array of forest berry fruits, red apple skins, capsicum balanced soundly with crunchy acidity
Winemaking Process: Whole bunch ferment with semi-carbonic maceration. During fermentation, the cap is punched down to extract color, and is then pressed & transferred to oak for 8 months before bottling
Easy drinking red wines with bright fruit aromas and low tannins. The wines are often released without much aging in tank, oak barrels or bottle, and are meant to be drunk early
These wines typically can be nejoyed without food, and are usually served cooler. They can be light bodied wines like Beaujolais, or light extraction styles that do not emphasize tannin & color extraction
