Angove Family Winemakers is one of Australia’s leading Organic winemakers. Sourced from Angove's Organically certified Nanya vineyard and premium certified Organic growers in the McLaren Vale region.
Vintage 2019 started normally following a dry, yet cool, uneventful spring. As harvest progressed this changed and an unprecedented heatwave in early January caused the vines to shut down for a couple of weeks. With decades of experience in the region the vineyard team was well prepared and provided the vines with adequate water prior to this, ensuring healthy full canopies and fruit that was unaffected by this extreme weather event. As the weather moderated into February the vines awoke from their slumber and ripened the fruit to perfection. They harvested a slightly below average quantity of high quality fruit, possibly the best seen in a decade of farming this section of the vineyard Organically.
The grapes for this wine were harvested at night to make sure that they were as cool as possible. Crushed to both rotary and ‘sweeparm’ fermenters the grapes were then allowed to macerate for 2 days before inoculation and fermentation. Pressed off skins when optimum flavour and colour levels were achieved and allowed to go through the second malolactic fermentation. Stored on oak until assemblage the wine has then had minimal handling prior to filtration for bottling at the Certified Organic winery.
Food Pairing: Enjoy with a Spanish inspired pork casserole or a vegan lasagne.
