Description
WINEMAKER: Brendan Hilferty
REGION: Alpine Valleys, VIC
VARIETAL: Arneis
VITICULTURE: Organic/Biodynamic
Arneis is is an Italian variety, native to the hills of Piedmont. It’s not a common variety, but Australia has the scond largest plantings outside of it’s Italian home. Fruit for this wine was off the Michelini Vineyard in the cool Alpine Valleys of north-east Victoria. Perhaps their Italian background, the elevation and the deft winemaking hands of Erin Pooley are what shines in this pristine white.
A pale clear white, it shows delicate floral and apple aromas and a perfectly pitched palate offering pear skin and crunchy apple flavours with fine, chalkdust acidity. We love it.
Sparrow & Vine wines are exclusive, small batch bottlings where the fruit is carefully sourced and the wine made in the Barossa Valley, Beechworth in Victoria or in our own Inner Sydney warehouse. All are made with minimal intervention and bottled using minimal amounts of sulphur dioxide.
