ANDREW CAILLARD 96 POINTS!
JAMES SUCKLING 94 POINTS!
HUON HOOKE 94 POINTS!
UNIQUELY PRODUCED, ROUND AND FLAVOURSOME WHITE

 

"Lemon curd, grapefruit, hint graphite waxy aromas. Well concentrated grapefruit, hint nectarine, pear skin flavours, supple slinky/ al dente textures, lovely mid-palate richness and fresh long cutting acidity. Very refreshing and complex – an amazing wine." - Andrew Caillard 

 

"Light bright green-yellow; fresh but savoury aromas, elusive cedar, white-pepper and almond-meal traces, the palate very dry and crisp, and finishes with a peppery aftertaste. Intense and long-lasting, and one senses it could even age happily, rewarding some cellaring. Impressive wine." - Huon Hooke

 

 
"The aromas of honeydew melon and lemons are beautiful here, with a touch of floral from lilacs. Medium to full body with a creamy texture and a complex salty, white pepper and green mango after taste. Bitter lemon, too. Made in ceramic vessels. No wood. 73% grenache blanc and 27% roussane." - James Suckling
 

 

 

"73% Grenache Blanc, 27% Roussanne. 43% of the final blend has skin contact, some parcels for between 112 and 121 days. White cherry, pear, honey and nuts, cornflakes, white flower perfume, cut fennel. It’s quite fleshy and juicy, all nashi pear and honey nut, a gentle stony grip to tannin, some pepper and almond creaminess. It’s got plenty of weight and flavour, and maybe comes over a little sweet and with some candied lemon peel, with a waxy and textured finish of good length, albeit just a little flaccid. Good though. Lots of interest." - Wine Front

 

"Inspired by the textural white wines of the Southern Rhône, Ovitelli Blanc brings these traditional varieties together in blended harmony. 73% Grenache Blanc, 27% Roussanne. All blocks were handpicked and partially macerated on skins between 112 and 121 days. The remaining batches were whole bunch basket pressed. These are un-fined, unsettled and fermented exclusively in ceramic eggs. No sulphur is added until the extended skin contact portion is removed from skins and the pressed juice has completed fermentation. 43% of the final blend was skin contacted." - Yangarra
