2022 Fetherston 'Magnolia' Albariño

WINEMAKING:  Single vineyard albariño from the King Valley. Machine harvested, then optically sorted in the winery before spending six days on skins where wild fermentation commenced. Pressed off to neutral French barriques and puncheons for the duration of primary fermentation. Aged on lees for four months prior to bottling in August 2022. 

TASTING NOTE:  Lemon yellow in colour, this wine delivers aromas of nashi pear, honeysuckle and finger lime with hints of tarragon. The palate is tantalising with lemon sorbet, sea spray, bright acidity and gorgeous minerality. There’s a lick of spice from skin contact and an umami edge to the finish.
