Swan Valley Wines Pemberton Forest Fume Blanc 2020
Regular price $31.00
A fume-style wine from a vineyard deep in the forests of Pemberton, the wine has a vibe more akin to a Bordeaux blanc than something more traditionally found in Western Australia - texture, yeasty complexity and herbal detail included. The fruit is whole bunch pressed and half of the wine ferments in new French oak barriques, while the rest ferments in qvevri, resulting in a textured and medium weight wine with classic SSB herbaceous-ness, grassy lemon balm characters, nectarine fruitiness, sweet pea tendrils and that fresh cut soft timber smell. Lots going on.
