Another release from the team at Green Man in Central Victoria and it's a corker, even though it is under screw cap ! Biodynamically grown, dry farmed, hand crafted with little intervention it was awarded a silver medal at the 2015 AAVWS in the crisp, fresh and dry Vermentino Class. There is another category for fuller-bodied ones.
The 2015 is pale yellow in colour with very attractive aromas of florals, nashi pear and bathroom perfumes.
It feels crisp and zingy on the
palate with a green apple, lemony lift through the centre.
Tastes fresh and vibrant with a
talc-like texture of nashi pear, green apple and bitter herbs. Aromatic, dry
and slatey.
Has the length, good structure and plenty of character.

It's a beautifully balanced mid-weight
wine, the lemon acidity keeping it seamless throughout. On the finish a subtle lemonade-like sweetness adds interest. Not hard to enjoy. Delicious drinking.
