Ebenezer White Frontignac and Vine Vale Semillon come together to create this magical blend. I encourage you to close your eyes, savour the flavours, and let it take you to that special place.
This wine is 80 % Kleinig grown White Frontignac and 20 % Neldner grown Semillon. The fruit was destemmed, crushed and then hydraulic pressed into a French oak barrel, with free run, and pressings together. This wine was a wild fermentation, which was cold, slow, and gentle on full gross lees, followed by multiple racks into a little VC. Lastly, the wine was hand bottled and sealed by a crown cap by myself and a few friends. Each bottle holds a wine made with lots of love and care, this is a small batch wine, with a total of 240 bottles. A special thanks to Dad & Steve for your help throughout this journey.
I wanted a label which reflected the way I felt when I drink 'off with the fairies'. I did the drawing of the girl one quiet day, sitting on the couch with the summer sun warming me... perfect! The image you see behind is a photograph of sand dunes, taken by one of my dear friends Jack Caithness. I absolutely fell in love with his work, he captures the world in such a magical way. I just knew that I had to incorporate it into my labels. I printed the image on a pearl sticker which gives it such an ethereal vibe. Each bottle was hand ladled by the amazing ‘shed crew’ and then silk screen printed on top. You might notice slight variation, which I love! Each bottle is unique and labled with lots of care.
Deep straw with golden hints through the fringe.
Up front, the melange of earl grey tea caresses your nose. These aromas make a dance with elderflower. A breeze of honey suckles on a warm night waft past, followed by Talcum flower and violets- like a hug from grandma.
Upfront & centre; a delicious late summer fruit salad of Honey dew melon, white peach & racy Semillon lemon topped with a fragrant Knafeh of honey-pistachio punch. The mouth is firmly grasped by a pillar of structured jasmine pearl tea phenolics slipping seductively through a Rubenesque landscape of opulent rounded harem dancers. This wine takes me on a personal journey through flavours and memories… what can you taste?
Ebenezer White Frontignac and Vine Vale Semillon come together to create this magical blend. When I take a sip of this wine, I picture myself walking through a fragrant floral garden on a warm summer’s night, sipping on an Earl Grey tea. Violets, talcum powder, and racy lemon, dance on my palate like fairies through a garden. This is what I love most about wine, it is such a personal intimate experience, different for each person. Whilst enjoying a drop of this wine, I encourage you to close your eyes, savour the flavours, and let it take you to that special place. Let the aromas capture you and take you on a journey, what or wherever that may be.
