2023 Beulah Violetta 'Stesso Stesso'
WINEMAKER: James Hird & Annie Conley REGION: McLaren Vale, SA VARIETY: Sangiovese, Merlot, Sagrantino VITICULTURE: Certified Organic and Biodynamic | A field blend of Sangiovese, Merlot and Sagrantino. Hand harvested over two days at the beginning of September. Co-fermented with indigenous yeasts. The idea of the wine is to make a super approachable light red with little tannin. We wanted to show the freshness of the site, the vineyard for this cuvée is 22 years old and faces east and to north east. The 2023 growing season through-out much of Italy was a cool wet one, thankfully the altitude and breezes prevented a lot of the disease pressure that happened across the country. The wine is ideal around 14 degrees. Made without any additions very small amount of sulphur added at bottling.
