Winemakers Comments:
Vintage 2022 was another cooler year in the Riverland – after a bumper crop in 2021, hail in late spring and issues with bunch set on some patches, yields for the year are slightly below average. But what the year lacks in quantity, it makes up for in quality – ripping acidity, plush fruits and flavor for days characterize a vintage that, while not without its challenges, has offered up some very yummy wines.
The Hell Series wines represent our experimentation with winemaking techniques, and allow the fruit to express different, unique and compelling characteristics.
Carbonic maceration is used in this wine to create a drink that is light and fruit forward, with a brightness and acid profile that is all about drinkability. The Aglianico and Montepulciano are hand harvested separately, whole bunches dumped straight into one tone fermenters, sealed up, pumped full of CO2 and left alone for 2 weeks. After this time, the musts are pressed off skins to finished ferment, the wine then left to go through malo and elevage in neutral French hogshead 9 months.
Bright and packed full juicy berry flavors, this wine is almost too easy to drink. Crunchy acidity and the addition of a little skin contact Arinto for depth and mouthfeel, our Light Red is a joyous, fun drink. Throw it in the fridge on a hot day and watch the bottle disappear.
Style/Palate: Light body, crunchy acidity, bright and full juicy berries
Aormas: jubey carbonic bubble gum, sour red cherries, dried cranberries/rum & raisin chocolate, vanilla.
Food Pairing: roast chicken, caramelised onions, and soft cheese.
