2019 Dirty Black Denim Carménère Piquette

WINEMAKER: Tim & Lawrence Scanlon
VARIETAL: Carménère
REGION: Heathcote, VIC
VITICULTURE: Organic/Biodynamic

So, piquette hey? Not something we thought we’d be doing, but why not give it a go. Water thrown over Carménère skins and pressed to barrel for ferment. Left on lees for 2 .5 years, with 2021 juice thrown back to get the fizz. It’s fizzy, it’s almost vinous and it’s 7.5%ABV. No adds.

"We aim to make wines that should be drunk from a mug or tumbler in a park with your mates. All of our booze is made without chemical interference (except for the occasional hit of SO2 at bottling) and we source our fruit from multiple regions across Victoria, with a focus on terroir expression and alternate winemaking styles. - Tim & Lawrence Scanlon
