Shadowfax Minnow Grenache Mataro 2023 balnaves This Vin Nat Nouveau CabernetA blend of 50% Grenache, 50% Mataro from out 25 year old vines at Shadowfax Werribee. The Grenache portion was carefully hand harvested and then went 100% natural, whole bunch fermentation in an open ferment. This led to some carbonic maceration characters, such as blue berry fruit notes. The Mataro underwent wild fermentation using whole berries only, with gentle daily hand plunges to extract fine tannins. The wine was then pressed and left to rest
