2024 DEFIALY 'Petit Rouge!!'

About the Wine

Organically-grown Merlot from Micah's Macedon Ranges Candlebark vineyard. Hand-picked and cold-soaked for 4 days in whole bunches. Wild fermented and aged in terracotta amphora and a 300L seasoned oak barrel.

A beautifully light red, perfect for a light chill on a warm afternoon. Red plums, fresh acidity and dusty little tannins make this wine supremely drinkable.

All wines unfiltered, unfined & wild fermented. 15PPM SO2.

About DEFIALY  

Based in the Macedon Ranges, Micah Hewitt's background as a butcher and love for pairing good wholesome country-style food with honest wines provides abundant inspiration for his DEFIALY label. But most significantly, his spark ignites from his parents and the love they shared for each other as well as Micah and his sister Amber.

DEFIALY is an acronym for "Don't ever forget I'll always love you" which is Micah's way of carrying on his parents tradition of signing all cards with DEFIALY. How beautiful.
