2020 Oliveto Single Vineyard Mataro

AU$60.00Price
  • Bright garnet in colour with lovely perfumed wild berry and spice aromas. The palate is rich and full flavoured with chiselled Mataro tannins, finishing with freshness.

    This wine has some complexing savoury undertones which will continue to develop as the wine matures for the medium term.

     

    Vineyard Information:

    The Oliveto vineyard is nestled in the foothills of the Sellicks Ranges which buffer the southern end of the Vale. This vineyard has a gentle north western aspect which allows for warm days and afternoon cooling by the gully winds and sea-breeze. This unique site is perfect for slowly ripening Mataro. The soils are very free draining but have enough iron stone and organic content to ensure good tannin and colour development.

     

    Winemaking Notes:

    Handpicked and sorted, destemmed with 10% whole bunch clusters included. Cold soaked for 6 days at 8ºC and left to warm up naturally to begin fermentation. Hand plunged daily and pressed off after 20 days on skins. Matured for 8 months in seasoned oak hogsheads and then racked, blended and bottled. No finings or filtration were used.
