Denton 'Shed' Nebbiolo 2023
Wines taste best when shared with friends!
Denton View Hill, is an isolated slope in the middle of the Yarra Valley on the north side of the Yarra River. The vineyard lies over a granite ‘plug’ from the late Devonian Age (370 million years ago), sitting above the surrounding sandstones and siltstones of the Valley. The Denton wines and Shed series are made by Luke Lambert, one of the leading winemakers in Victoria.
The Nebbiolo block sits half way up the North Western slope, catching all available sunshine hours. The granitic sand over granite boulders and long, slow growing season provide a very special and unique terroir.
"This has seen 50% fermented in a 1t open fermenter and 50% on skins in a ceramic egg. A very light, bright crimson. Bright and lifted with red fruits, blood oranges and some rose petal. Light and bright on the palate too, with gently crunchy tannins and good acidity rounding out a pretty and delicious wine I'd serve at around 14 degrees on a warm night with grilled lamb cutlets. Or anything really." 93pts | Phillip Rich | Halliday Wine Companion
