This wine has a complex, layered, slightly funky nose that displays honeycomb, spice, gunflint & exotic fruit aromas. The palate is seductive & inviting but in perfect balance, showing honey, lees & struck match characters. These rich, luscious flavours continue on the long, clean finish.
A good match with roasted quail and a side salad of parmesan, pear and rocket. Imogen also works well with crispy skin Vietnamese pork belly.
Awards and Accolades
2014 Vintage: 92 Points - James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion "Bursting with grapefruit, pineapple and apple-like flavours. This hits you smack between the eyes. A wine of intensity and impact, some of which comes via alcohol."
From the Winery
Vineyard parcels were kept separate in the winery and the handpicked fruit was pressed and free run juice was taken with no pressing cut. The juice completed natural fermentation (ie no yeast was added), followed by four months on lees to build texture and complexity. The parcels were carefully blended and the finished wine was bottled with no finings
