Forlorn Hope Songs From Mars Black Sallad Zemillon 2022

Peramangk Country

Produced by the excellent, cult winemaker Matt Rorick who is based in California but travels to Aus in his off-season of winemaking to play around with South Australian fruit. 

It delivers a great experience all right. Limey, lemony, some ginger, a touch of green almond with a haziness to texture and a core of blisteringly fresh, green apple tang. Some saline notes in here too - we love the salty whites - though you could say minerally in the same breath. Great texture is a feature too. Very cool to see a US winemaker take on such a stately, white grape variety from Australia and hit it for six … this is utterly delicious.
