TASTING NOTE
Lemon hued, with heady aromas of white peach, nectarine, curry leaf and oyster shell. The seaside vibes continue on the palate, where the tangy fruit and bright acidity harmonize with a slippery texture and ocean spray saltiness.
VINEYARD & VITICULTURE
The Burnside Vineyard is unique in its aspect, soil and age - one of the great sites in the country. The vineyard sits on the banks of the Margaret River with unique micaceous black soil. Located 1.7km from the coast, a stones throw from the family home. Planted in 1981 by Freya's father, David Hohnen. The rows lean into the river, on a steep northern aspect, running north-west to south-east. Burnside Vineyard is certified biodynamic.
VINIFICATION
Hand-picked and pressed straight to barrel. Natural fermentation. French barriques, 30% new the remainder 3-year-old. No stirring, just topping and tasting on a fortnightly basis. Spontaneous malolactic fermentation late Autumn, early Spring offering a natural cover of CO2 during maturation. The wine remains undisturbed with some sulphur added just prior to a January bottling. We blended off the bench from barrel before bottling a week later. The wine is unfined and unfiltered, it may present some harmless deposits in the bottle.
