Wine Profile
Production Notes
The limited production Evermore wines from Frogmore Creek are part of an unfinished project between our grapes and the winemakers. Every vintage we orchestrate several unconventional winemaking techniques for our microbatches of handpicked grapes, which each develop their own flavours, aromas and textures as they ferment and mature. These individual attributes layer together at blending, creating an immensely complex finished wine.
Winemaker Notes
Whole-bunch pressed to retain fruit delicacy. Clean inoculated primary ferment prior to racking off lees and base wine stabilisation and clarification. Base wines then aged and blended prior to tirage. Minimum 18-months of aging on lees before disgorging with special dosage to retain complexity yet revitalise palate.
