Mencía (Rohrlach Vineyard) 2022

Winemaker notes:
Organically grown and made (uncertified), this is the first release of our new Rohrlach Vineyard Mencía. A vibrant, fresh, early-drinking style, this wine is all about the fruit.

Strawberry, raspberry and pomegranate on the nose, with fresh beetroot, cinnamon and liquorice. The palate is plush and round, loaded with juicy sweet fruit, it lingers with notes of vanilla and boysenberry.

Enjoy while young and fresh or within two years of release.
Best served cool at 14-16C or enjoy chilled from the fridge in warmer weather.

Hand-made at CRFT certified organic winery in Carey Gully. Hand-picked on the 4th and 6th April 2022. Destemmed to an open-top tank for wild fermentation with around 2 weeks on skins. Then pressed to oak for wild malolactic fermentation followed by maturation for 6 months with regular lees stirring.

100% French oak, all seasoned barriques 3yo+. Unfined and unfiltered. Bottled October 2022. Vegan friendly.
