Facing their coldest and latest harvest ever, the Beechworth Nebbiolo fruit was sitting low in sugar while the vine leaves were literally dropping off around it. Instead of forcing a still red from a freezing season, they took inspiration from the extreme alpine sparklers of Valtellina and went down the traditional method sparkling route.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine spent two years on lees in bottle, and the gamble paid off beautifully. It pours a fascinating shade that sits somewhere between a pale copper and burnished pewter, totally defying standard rose descriptions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrinking this from a proper white wine glass reveals an expansive, texturally rich profile. It trades on a plush, yeasty weight that carries soft, muddled red berries and a distinctly savoury, sub-alpine framework. It’s an electric, bone-dry fizz that shows the variety through an entirely different prism. We've tracked their Beechworth experiments since day one, and this might be their most inspired MacGyver moment yet.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vignerons Schmolzer \u0026 Brown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44127776571435,"sku":"2023 Vignerons Schmolzer \u0026 Brown Thorley Nebbiolo Methode Traditionnelle","price":75.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2572\/9722\/files\/2023VigneronsSchmolzer_BrownThorleyNebbioloMethodeTraditionnelle.webp?v=1781236479","url":"https:\/\/www.differentdrop.com\/products\/2023-vignerons-schmolzer-brown-thorley-nebbiolo-methode-traditionnelle","provider":"Different Drop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
