A classic SB varietal nose, the textured palate shows more passionfruit, kiwi fruit, gooseberries, fresh soft herbs and hazelnuts, finishing with juicy acidity.
Brown Brooke Estate is on the border of Gruyere and Coldstream in the Yarra Valley. It sits on depleted clay loam at the edge of the valley floor.
The fruit was hand harvested, it was immediately pressed into tank and chilled for 48 hours. Alcoholic fermentation occurred naturally and was followed by full malolactic conversion. The finished wine stayed in tank on gross lees for 11 months.
No sulphur was added until bottling.
