Giaconda, Nantua Les Deux, Chardonnay Roussane blend, Beechworth, Victoria, Australia ‘05

Grapes: Chardonnay and Roussanne
Each: £32.00

Just amazing. Rick Kinzbrunner ploughs his particularly individual furrow in one of the many mini regions of the state of Victoria, Australia. The Nantua les Deux was born from tiny initial production of Rick’s pet white Rousanne. The crop only yielded half a barrel, Rick topped this up with Chardonnay and has stuck with the blend ever since. An amazingly haphazard birth to an intriguing wine that is so beautifully crafted you’d swear it was the culmination of lifetime of dedicated experimentation.
Depth of concentration, complexity and focus in remarkably long lived wines.
