Critic reviews

James Halliday – The best wine of this tier by a mile. Pulpy and plush, with an effusive chord of energy tying an attack of violet, blueberry and boysenberry to a finish of poise and generosity, smattered with garden herbs for savoury perk. Really good drinking at this sort of price. - Ned Godwin

Vintage Vigilant

We aim to have all wines above $30 be vintage specific. In the case the listed vintage is out of stock and you note you would like that particular vintage, we will inform you via email for approval to go ahead.

About this Wine

STORY
The life of the party, the instigator of frivolity, the undying entertainer. A modern-day jester gathers friends around regularly to eat and drink well, and much like their medieval predecessors, reminds us that life shouldn’t be taken too seriously.

TASTING NOTE
Opulent aromas of sweet cherry, blackcurrant, cedarwood and mocha. Medium to full bodied palate with richness and depth. Sweet cherry, spiced blood plums and hints of Christmas pudding, coffee and dry spices. All perfectly balanced by succulent acidity, fine grained chewy tannins and a long savoury finish.

WINEMAKING
Destemmed and crushed into an 8 tonne potter fermenter with twice daily pump overs throughout ferment. Temperatures were kept cool, between 20 and 24˚C to retain fruit vibrancy and ensure a soft tannin structure. The ferment was pressed off at approximately 1 Baume to finish in stainless steel tank before being transferred to seasoned 60% French and 40% American oak hogs head barrels for 14 months. Natural malolactic fermentation was completed during this time, following which the wine was racked, sulphured and returned to oak to complete its maturation. No finings and only light filtration were used prior to bottling.

VINEYARD
Lopresti Home Block, Hahn Road, Sellicks Hill, McLaren Vale.

Less than 2 kilometres from the coastal town of Aldinga and only 4 kilometres from the beach itself. Ngaltinga Formation derived alluvial grey sandy clay and biscay soils with pockets of sand interbeds. These highly reputed soils maintain moisture during the growing season but dry out in summer which helps to control vine vigour and concentrate flavours in the fruit. Cooling sea breezes off the Gulf St Vincent cool the vineyard and help to retain freshness and vibrancy.
