Sweet Delay Pet Nat Sparkling Peramangk (Adelaide Hills)
Lightly macerated Say Blanc and a standout parcel selected for its racy acidity and uplifting energy, sent to bottle with a lick of Shiraz rosé. A peachy presence in the glass, bubbles doing an austere little dance, pine/lime around the edges. Not a sweet wine, just a sweet time.
Dilly Dally Chardonnay Peramangk (Adelaide Hills)
Chardonnay proper for its first time to grace the Późno lineup, something we never wanted to unveil ’til it looked like this. Direct pressed to our favourite old French oak barrels. Pineapple notes and finger lime on the nose, giving way to lemon meringue on the palate with a moreish acid line. A mouthwatering depth of flavour that rolls in waves and a clean palate of zesty tension and intense detail. One to savour.
Scenic Route Sav Blanc Peramangk (Adelaide Hills) — Forreston Vineyard
Black cracking clay soils. Macerated for 7 days before being lightly pressed to 50/50 stainless steel and large format old French oak. Lots of pent-up energy in this one, more on the herbaceous side than the tropical, flavours that ramble on a linear path. Chewy and pithy mouthfeel, grapefruit and green mango, orange peel and bitters, kinda Amaro with a Campari-like finish.
