Wine Description
There are aromas of nectarine, white peach & melon fruits coupled with roasted hazelnut and oak spice on the nose. Way-way off into the distance is the subtle hint of ginger and pink musk lollies—a unique character of the clonal selection. The palate displays citrus fruits, lemon curd and almond meal notes.
Winemaker's Bio
The Pawn Wine Co. had its beginning in 2002 out of necessity when vignerons and winemakers Tom Keelan and his wife Rebecca Willson had a small parcel of fruit deemed ‘not good enough’ by a particular nameless, soulless wine monolith. They had now become mere Pawns in the global wine game, doomed to be played and moved around, and ultimately sacrificed.
They continue their crusade against the corporate wine world, by staying artisinal, and allowing the fruit to shine with minimalist winemaking techniques, environmental sustainable practices and old world grape varieties that have found their new home in Australia.
