Crushed & Cured
Protero, `Aromatico`, Adelaide Hills, Australia, 2023
This dry wine is rich and perfumed with aromas of lychee, lemongrass and peach balanced with a lifted floral note of rose oil and ginger flower. The palate is refreshing with lime aromas and rose water notes leading to a zesty, long finish.
Aromatico is a blend of Gewürztraminer, Riesling, and Sauvignon Blanc. The Gewürztraminer was harvested on 23rd March, settled as juice and held in tank. The Riesling arrived on 4th April, was gently pressed and blended with the Gewürztraminer, and again held in tank until the Sauvignon Blanc arrived on 14th April. Fermentation finally began on 1st May and lasted 8 weeks, leaving a touch of residual sugar. The wine was then bottled on 13th July 2023.
