This particular wine is a blend of Vermentino, Fiano and Moscato Giallo which serve as complementary grapes. The wine spends three months on skins in tank, to acquire aromatics, colour and strength. This is a natural wine, bottled without filtration, fining or added sulphur. It is delicate yet complex, with hints of musk, orange blossom, orange peel, ginger spice and a savoury grip.
Momento Mori
New Zealander Dane Johns (who staged with the great Bill Downie) worked many years as a barista in Melbourne where he learned about roasting and the nuances of blending and flavour infusion. He was also a musician, making electronic music and then moving towards the analogue version (much like his winemaking).
