Description
Pokolbin Blanc is a blend of multiple varieties, with some fermented on skins, some in stainless steel, Spanish clay amphora and some in neutral French oak to build complexity, weight and texture. I wonder if you can guess what they are?! Part of Gus Vinden's new experimental range is this light, crisp number that is the sum of many parts.
From a single vineyard in Polkolbin this musky, aromatic blend is centred around some fleshy Gewurztraminer, with some more traditional Semillon and Verdelho also in the mix.
Unfined, unfiltered is an unconventional Hunter white delight. This funky little number is light, fun and delicious.
Young Angus Vinden is the owner/winemaker of this much-loved Hunter Valley winery. Having taken the reins from his father just a few years ago, Gus is reimagining his family's wine label with a string of exciting, modern wines coming out of his cellar.
