Delinquente - (Australian Wine Co.) |
| Taste: |
The acid, and subsequent length that it gives the wine, that stands out this year.
The acid profile is super bright and crunchy, so these classic characteristics seem to play second fiddle, but are accentuated at the same time. |
| Vinification: |
Wild fermented in stainless steel, the Vermentino spends 6 weeks on fine lees, stirred twice weekly, giving it a beautiful, textural edge. The hot early seasons conditions meant the Vermentino came off very early again, but the ever increasing vine age means that flavours are well developed and layered, while acid is cracking given the season. |
