Description

By chance in 2020, Wolf’s younger daughter heard of some Barossa Semillon that had been left of the vine just a bit to long. Not right for a table wine, but perfect for a fortified. A plan was hatched. This is fun winemaking at it best. A little soak of the juice on skins, a press in the basket press and let the ferment get going. The ferment was stopped by fortification with Brandy Spirit to leave a sweat’ish wine that is now stored in ex Australian Whisky barrels. The wine will continue to evolve the barrel developing complexity from the wood and previous contents. Best fresh from the barrel, it is bottled as required. Each label has the date of bottling hand written on it. This is a single vintage fortified.

Unlike a table wine, it can be open and consumed over weeks but it is recommend you keep it in fridge once opened and consumed within a month.

This can be drunk room temperature in front of the fire in winter or cold over ice as a pre-dinner drink when warm. You can also make Whisky cocktails with it!

Bottled as ordered. Only 4 x 220lt Barriques made. When gone, we move to the 2021
