Absolutely pristine fruit from the Young Gun of wine's inaugural vineyard of the year winner. This is the second vintage we have purchased and made something of a homage to Sammy's previous wine project (Old Mate wine) and a skin contact riesling he used to make called \"it's Lit\". We will have tech notes available for it by the end of the weekend but if you don't want to wait, the short story is about a week of skin contact, a few months fermentation in stainless and elevage in Seasoned oak.\" - thanks, Charles! We didn't wait... | [Local Weirdos was founded in 2019 by father and son, Sam and Larry Jorgensen, brothers Charles and Matt Stewart and weirdo Dave Cosford. Since that time we have all worked tirelessly to carefully curate and develop this project with this fundamental mission statement in mind: ‘Our aim through attentive minimal intervention viticultural and oenological practice, is to raise natural wines of character and soul. Our wines sit at the intersection of basic joy and deeper complexity, and exist to highlight our passion for the preservation and celebration of our unique locality - The Swan Valley.’]","brand":"Local Weirdos","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47545757696162,"sku":"72910590478","price":35.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/spon.bar\/products\/2023-local-weirdos-our-mate","provider":"Spön Bottle Shop and Wine Bar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
