Fletcher Minion Nebbiolo 2022

Sourced from Dixons Creek in the Yarra Valley. Always a blended wine, retaining the traditions of Piedmont blending. 100% Nebbiolo. Open ferment, 100% destemmed. regions fermented separately, then blended. Old barrique. 14 months in wood.

Previously this was a blend of Yarra Valley and Pyrenees Nebbiolo, however Dave wasn't happy with the darker characters coming from the later. So it's now all Yarra Valley fruit and it looks cracking!

Loads of florals, really jumping from the glass. Succulent strawberry and raspberry with pockets of orange flesh and peel. Very elegant with a refreshing tangy acid line. Fine, soft tannin glides along the palate remining you it is Nebbiolo though certainly drinking fantastically now. Jeremy Muller, FWC.
