Tar & Ross Nebbiolo 2021

Lifted cherries intertwined with the smell of wet rocks on a hot day. This young wine expresses fresh youthful notes. With time youd expect to see more bottle age characters develop – floral notes accompanied by more tar-like characters with hints of leather and cranberry.The fruit for this vintage was sourced from a completely different site than previous years, closer to the Mt Camel range and on the red Cambrian soil. Fruit was machine harvested and crushed to a small open fermenter. It was then hand plunged three times a day. After approximately 10 days of fermentation, during which time the temperature and acid levels were monitored and adjusted as necessary, it was pressed to tank using a gentle air bag press.
