2022 Tidy Town Shiraz Pét-Nat
WINEMAKER: Alex Croker & Rob Lundberg
REGION: Grampians, VIC
VARIETAL: Shiraz
VITICULTURE: Organic/Sustainable
100% Shiraz sourced from the Rice's vineyard in the Grampians, Western Victoria. Planted on weathered volcanic soils to sandy and red clay loams interspersed with ironstone. Organically farmed, though not certified.
"A blend of 4 different pick days, 100% Concongella Best's Old Block clone Shiraz. Predominantly the earliest pick from the cane pruned section at the western edge of the vineyard. This pick is for the red fruits. The second pick is the most northerly section of the block. Spur pruned, more spice driven. The final two picks are from the easterly section. The east is very austere and provides dark fruits and more structure." - Alex Croker
Little Brunswick Wine Co. is the culmination of Alex Croker and Rob Lundberg’s efforts to turn a small tax return, and several hundred buckets of grapes into a winery within the tiny five-foot cellar underneath Alex’s house in Brunswick East. The 'Tidy Town' range focuses on alternative varietals or winemaking styles from fruit sources across Central & Western Victoria. Value & drinkability in spades, these are truly party wines for party people without any compromise on vibrancy, detail or intrigue.
