$58.00
Description
93 Points, Halliday Wine Companion "The fruit was sourced from Lusatia Park and made with around 25% whole bunches. A light, bright garnet. A subtle wine with aromas of cherries, redcurrants, pomegranate and delicate rose petal and spice. The palate is similarly light and graceful with very fine, persistent tannins on the nicely long, blood-orange-infused finish. To be enjoyed now and over the short- to medium-term."
ABOUT TIMO MAYER
German-born, enigmatic winemaker Timo Mayer is one of the great characters of the Yarra Valley. The words bombastic, charismatic and wild are as much applicable to the man as his wines. From his close-planted Yarra Valley vineyard, evocatively named 'Bloody Hill', Timo carves out some astounding wines made with low levels of new oak and minimal additions. The signature of Timo's winemaking style is his penchant for whole-bunch ferment. His wines have an ethereal quality, firm tannins and impeccable structure. These are compelling and extremely limited wines that tell a unique story of the Yarra Valley.
