2023 Frankly, This Wine Was Made By Bob Skinsy
Description
WINEMAKER: Bob & Tom Colman
REGION: Blue Mountains, NSW
VARIETY: Picqupoul Blanc, Riesling, Semillon
VITICULTURE: Organic/Biodynamic
Handpicked from the certified organic Windowrie Vineyard in Canowindra & from the Cargo Road Vineyard in Orange, practicing organics. Picqupoul Blanc, Riesling & Semillon were destemmed and wild fermented on skins for 3 weeks in stainless steel before being pressed to old french oak barrels, where it matured for a further 6 months on gross lees. Bottled unfiltered & zero additions.
"This is a blend of picqupoul blanc, riesling and semillon. All grapes were destemmed and fermented on skins for 3 weeks before being pressed to old french oak barrels. This has come to be known as our "house style" by focusing on tannin and acidity and letting the aromatics be the side focus. Riesling on skins is an amazing component in this wine that will scratch the itch for orange wine drinkers, whilst also maintaining our focus on freshness and texture." - Bob & Tom Colman
Bob and son Tom grow and source their grapes in cool-climate wine growing regions of New South Wales to make natural wine in their shed in Blackheath, The Blue Mountains. Franklythiswinewasmadebybob wines are organic or biodynamic and made with humble intention. Nothing added.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
