What the Experts Say
Warramate stretches back to 1970, and brings forth fruit from non-irrigated vines. It’s under the stable of Yarra Yering these days of course.
This is delicious drinking, bristling with acidity, squeaky texture, vigorous citrusy freshness. Scents of stainless steel, green apple, wet fern. Flavours of lime on green apple, faint talc-like nature to texture, a core of pin-point acidity stretching long. Neat and tidy, fresh and frisky. Nicely done.
92/100 - Mike Bennie, The Wine Front
Our Notes
Cloudy and unfined, this "Light Bright Summer Red" comes with a suggestion to serve it chilled, which we definitely recommend. A juicy mix of tart and sweet with an unfussy approach, like a little bit of summer in the middle of winter.
From the Winery
Light Bright Summer Red (Pinot Noir) is made to be drunk. Utterly delicious!
The aim is to keep this wine fun, without the pretence that Pinot Noir always needs analysing.
Minimal time on skins gives a wine with little tannin, so it can be chilled without a harsh mouthfeel.
Partly barrel fermented but mostly made in stainless steel to capture bright red and blue fruit.
Nose: Blueberry, rhubarb, bramble, wild red cherry, mountain herbs and a cool mint freshness.
Palate: Delicate, juicy and delicious. Don't overthink such a beautiful thing!
About the Winery
Hersey's winemaking friends work from revitalised premises set up in the '90s by Australia's first qualified female winemaker, and stick to an honest approach: wild yeast, early picking, minimal fining and processing. What you see is what you get, and what you drink.
Offbeat but drinkable is the game, all at great prices. We can also heartily recommend the sparkling rosé.
