"The Inspiration: I was inspired by my travels to do something totally bizarre so blended white viognier juice with red Shiraz skins prior to fermentation."
Creative licence for the artist looking to have a bit of fun. Now comes in a tall, brown, Germanic Riesling-esque bottle. Stonefruit, squashed blueberry, a little raspberry. Curious, fruit-driven aromatic mix.
I remember the 2014 of this wine, ah....there it is, the loose, open and slippery textured minx I remember. Light, nimble...airy - likely a word I'll come back to. More than a suggestion of stonefruit on the back palate.
Doesn't seem like it will have length - yet it keeps on giving. Smashed this down with a Rio 2016 inspired Feijoa (with added chilli). Enjoyable. 90
