THE WINES
100% Grenache Noir, made as a blanc de noir, fermented and briefly aged in stainless steel. Vin de France.
Pours almost water-white. Apricots, oranges, honeydew melon, mango, oddly evokes Champagne, even a nod of brioche. Underpinned with fine, cleansing mineral nodding to its limestone soil origins, with some orange rind bitterness. Squeaky clean and different without being at all weird.

Additional Information ABOUT THE PRODUCER
Biodynamic Minimal Intervention Wines From A Beautiful Adelaide Hills Estate
Owner Damon Nagel started life as a sommelier in Adelaide, moving to London to further his wine education whilst working in top end dining restaurants. Achieving success in London property, he would eventually return to Adelaide, purchasing the beautiful undulating Brackenwood farm in the early 2000s, first releasing wines from vintage 2005.
Winemaking is today overseen by Daniel Zuzolo, ex Primo Estate, with the stable offering interesting blends and lesser seen plantings of Barbera and Gamay alongside more traditional offerings such as Shiraz and Riesling.
Growing and winemaking is strictly along biodynamic lines, with no additions bar minimal sulphur at bottling. A pure set of releases very much at home alongside Felixir’s European offerings, fun styles of personality with enough depth and interest to be taken seriously.
