[SOLD-OUT] Adelina Nebbiolo 2015

There’s a lot of attention to detail and thought behind the Adelina wines. More so, a lot of seriously great wine is drunk as benchmarking, something not every winemaker does, but likely should do more of. The fruit comes from Bowe Lees vineyard (Adelaide Hills) and spends a serious 71 days on skins before maturation in used, larger format oak barrels.


There’s a sense of extra generosity and ripeness in this release. Beautiful perfume, draws you into the glass, one to sniff on long and with pleasure. Rose hip tea, raspberry, pot pourri, sandalwood. More roses than tar. It’s a succulent wine, mouthwatering in acidity, floods the palate with sweet-ripe berry fruit flavours, exits with a lingering build of bergamot tea-like tannin. Just over medium weight. Luxurious nebbiolo. Delicious.
