About this Wine

2023 Serpens: Since 2013, Quarry Ridge Vineyard in Kilmore has been the source of our Pinot Noir. Grown alongside the Pinot Noir is a small parcel of Semillon. In 2023 we had a tiny crop of Chardonnay which we decided to pick and ferment with the Semillon to make this unique blend- the first since 2015.

Winemaking: The fruit was hand picked and then whole bunch pressed. The juice was transferred to old puncheons and hogsheads for fermentation using the naturally occurring yeasts. Once dry, the wine underwent MLF and remained on lees in oak for the next 12 months. Once transferred to tank, the new wine spent another 4 months on fine lees before coarse filtration and bottling in June 2024.

Colour: The colour is still remarkably youthful- pale straw with a positive green hue.

Nose: Aromatically, the influence of the Semillon is apparent. Light fennel, some spearmint and a hint of apple leaf introduced from the Chardonnay component (21%)

Palate: The palate is super fresh and bright, with white stone fruit, some jasmine and a hint of citrus. Extended lees time has added texture and richness to the mid palate, and we expect this to continue as an aspect of the wines aging- expect to see complex honeyed aspects to emerge over the next 10 years in bottle

Our 2023 Serpens is a unique wine, showing definitively that the sum of two varietals is quite often better than the parts.
