Description
"Quasimodo is a unique Australian blend of Nero d’Avola, Shiraz and Durif sourced from the regions of Eldorado, Beechworth, Glenrowan and Rutherglen. It’s an amalgam of flavour and colour culminating in a complex rewarding wine. The composition of this blend changes vintage to vintage, with the pursuit being a consistent affable wine of layered complexity that resonates as ‘Quasimodo’ each year. The 2023 sits in its usual medium-bodied spectrum, with plenty of bright fruit, a lifted floral bouquet and fine chalky tannins. The Nero d’Avola was sourced from two vineyards; our home site at Eldorado, which is planted on rare decomposed red granite soils, along with fruit from a certified organic vineyard in Glenrowan. Both picks of fruit were destemmed and gently hand plunged daily before being basket pressed into seasoned French oak puncheons and left to mature on lees for 8 months." - Winemaker Notes
