Regular price $250.00

Winery: Chalou

Region: Orange - New South Wales

Winemaker: Nadja Wallington & Steve Mobbs

Varietal(s): 100% Arneis 

A sunny disposition of citrus blossom & honeydew melon on the bouquet…  much like that of a Sommelier introducing you to a new wine she has discovered. The palate… finely detailed with bright acidity, parmesan rind & a chalky grip reflecting the precise nature of a winemaker. Arneis… a friendly & peculiar Italian varietal that brought two school friends together again to produce a wine of passion, place and memories. We hope you enjoy drinking it as much as we enjoyed making it.

Winemaking Notes:

Hand harvested on the 24th March 2021. Cooled overnight before processing. Crushed and basket pressed- keeping pressing fraction separate. Free run fermented in old French barriques with native yeast. Pressings were hyperoxidized to knock out harsh phenolics, then racked to older French oak for ferment with native yeast. Matured on fermentation lees until spring.

Minimal fining and sulfur additions prior to bottling.

No fining = Vegan Friendly 

Soil: Ordovician material approximately 460million years old.  It contains basic volcanic material; sandstone, siltstone breccia and conglomerate derived from basalt and andesite
