Skin contact gives pale yellow colour. Edgy wet stone phenolics with sweet floral hint on nose. Surprising palate weight with tension between pronounced minerality and bright lively acid leading to floral and honey hints at the back.

Henty is Australia’s coolest wine-growing region and a place where aromatic white varieties thrive. Hochkirch’s Blanc is a delicious blend of estate-grown Semillon (95%) and Sauvignon Blanc (5%). The vines grow in the basalt-rich gravelly soils of John Nagorcka’s certified-biodynamic home farm. The fruit was picked on 7th April and mostly destemmed (19% bunches remained) but not crushed. Fermentation occurred on skins for eight days before the wine was pressed to 500-litre puncheons for maturation on lees until the following January. In John’s own words: “Unfined, unfiltered, unabashed.”
