a chilled red style. crunchy. vibrant. sassy.

“Limestone Coast is the quarry, the winemaker Lauren Hansen of Penley Estate, doing her own thing with a light touch and eye on drinkability, it feels (though that shift in Penley Estate is notable too!). This is 100% whole bunch and spends a mere five days on skins. Clever approach to the variety.
The wine is all about crunch and sizzle. High gluggability, a chillable red of verve and energy with fine, silty tannin, brisk, blood orange acidity, tart red plum and red berry fruitiness and a scree of dried herbs, salt bush and aniseed going on underneath. A thirst-quenching red wine, well balanced, great energy and the DNA of the variety, though out of its usual guise, is all here. Winner.”
