Schmolzer & Brown 'Schatz' Sylvaner 2022
- ABOUT THE WINE: A crisp, savoury single vineyard Sylvaner from the Darling (Schatz in German) vineyard in the upper reaches of the King Valley. Dry and refreshing, with delicate floral aromatics that build, savoury white herbs, textural phenolics(and a blush of colour) from partial skin contact, and lingering acidity. A combination of stainless and old oak fermentation. Unfined.
-
ABOUT THE PRODUCER: "We make a range of wines from Beechworth, the King Valley, and occasionally the Alpine Valleys as we've been waiting for our own property to reach maturity. Every one of our wines is made with hand-picked fruit. The wines ferment with only indigenous yeast (the waxy stuff on the outside of the grape) and if the wines go through Malolactic fermentation, then that is spontaneous. Where possible, we'd like the only addition made to our wines to be preserving sulphur dioxide. Once our own vineyard is old enough to be mechanically cultivated, we will undertake conversion to organic viticulture there.
We spend a lot more time in the field than in the cellar, so our winemaking practises are pretty simple. We don't fine, and only filter our white wines." Schmolzer & Brown
