Vintage 2018

AUSTRALIA: Very promising quality with the most optimistic reviewers declaring 2018 great in every region and for every variety. The more cautious view is that early frosts reduced yields, but that consistent good weather throughout the second half of the growing season actually resulted in great potential.

Written Notes

Tasted from a 10-cl sample bottle. Machine-picked and fermented in open-top fermenters, daily pumpover and plunging. After primary fermentation, the wine was run to new (20%), one- and two-year-old barrels for malo. After six months it was blended and aged in barrel for another eight months. Fined with egg white. Bottled 22–28 August 2019. Released March 2020. TA 6.59 g/l, pH 3.44.
This is just like that big, plump, push-velvet, deep-red cushion that you love to sink into when you're curling up in an armchair to read a book. It's square with corners, but every bit of it is rounded. It's firm, but utterly giving. You can punch it (every book has its bad bits) and use it as a shield against the world. It tastes of pencil-sketched raspberries and damsons dipped in nutmeg and finished with a clove. Everyone wants one for a rainy day.
