2021 Enigma Semillon

Tasting Notes

Vibrant straw with greens.
Lemon scented, citrus blossom, brine and a hint of wood smoke
Drinking deliciously now the wine will evolve and develop for the ensuing decades.
Incredibly refreshing, mouth watering palate with lemon drops, hints of straw, hessian and hints of vanilla coming to the fore.
The wine while subtle, elegant and understated has a core of minerality and a washed rock character then goes on to finish with fresh zippy acidity.

Winemaking

The fruit for this wine was sourced from Tim’s Vineyard situated in the Moorabool Valley.
Harvest occurred on a sunny March day and the fruit was delivered to the winery in the late afternoon. Following whole bunch pressing the juice was settled overnight then racked to barrel & stainless steel vessel for fermentation.
The stainless steel vessel was inoculated with an Active Dry Wine Yeast and the barrels were permitted to ferment with ambient yeast.
Post ferment the barrels were topped monthly from the stainless component
Following 6 months elevage the wine was racked, blended, stabilised and filtered prior to bottling
