Description

Jo Perry continues her quest to make exciting, organically farmed, naturally made Margaret River wines, and this is a terrific introduction.

Don't be fooled by the name 'Tinto' - this is Margaret River Shiraz, but not like we know it...

Margaret River Shiraz has at times struggled for its own identity, but this is a style we love to see. Somewhat of a 'nouveau' release, it's medium-bodied at most, full of vibrant fruit and spice and good, firm structure.

100% whole bunch, 100% whole berry ferment, 100% deliciousness.

It's interesting, it's approachable, it's colourful, and it's a bit of a no-brainer, to be honest.

    Delicious Dormilona!

    If you like natural wines, this is a must! Minimal sulphites with this beautiful purple hue colour, packed with a delicious blackberry taste. Suited cold evenings at room temperature and also warm days straight from the fridge, all round drinking!

Dormilona

Josephine Perry is one of the most exciting and interesting producers in Margaret River. Her Dormilona label is setting a new tone for the region.

A self-confessed 'lazy-bones' winemaker, Jo is low-intervention in the winery, instead focusing her energies on the quality of fruit that she brings in the winery.

She uses only organically and biodynamically farmed fruit from high-quality vineyards across Margaret River and the Swan Valley and is bringing an alternative styling to the hero varieties of the west.

These are natural wines with flair and originality. From vineyard to glass, Jo handcrafts each wine with love and tender hands. An authentic producer who's rightfully gaining plenty of attention.

Jo Perry and her fur baby, Humphrey Dormilona
