2017 Murdoch Hill Artisan Sulky Blanc
Production information
2017 Murdoch Hill Artisan Sulky Blanc
Region: Adelaide Hills
Harvest date: March 2017
Bottling date: 22rd of August 2017
Alcohol: 12.5% alc
Winemaker: Michael Downer
Vineyard& Winemaking
80% Riesling, 20% Pinot Gris
This textural aromatic blend is comprised of Riesling from Macclesfield and Lenswood, with a dash of Pinot Gris from Lobethal.
Spontaneous wild fermentation occurs in older barrels after pressing with partial skin contact to add structure. Maturation was for 4 months in barrel and two month in stainless steel tank before bottling.
These techniques were employed to help make a more approachable wines style, with layers of complexity whilst still displaying the varietal expression of Riesling, Pinot Gris adds mid palate weight and texture to the final blend.
Comments:
The Artisan series are very exclusive wines made in small quantities. They are a tribute to the late Tom Downer (1918-1984) a passionate collector of horse drawn vehicles.
