Mataburro Idoine 2022
Regular price $74.00
Idoine 2021 is merlot from vines that are 30 – 40 years old which were planted by Laurent’s father and a splash of grenache.
Vinified initially in two tanks, the whole bunches had six days maceration. This short period of maceration ensures that not too much tannin and other harsh polyphenols are extracted leaving a surprisingly fresh and lively wine, showing that merlot is capable of presenting many faces if treated properly.
They found the name ‘Idoine’ in a book Laurent’s uncle had written. It means ‘the good stuff’. This wine has no additions, including no added sulphites, and no fining or filtration. - Living Wines
