{"product_id":"2024-castagna-growers-selection-harlequin","title":"2024 Castagna Growers' Selection Harlequin","description":"\u003cp\u003eHarlequin is Castagna getting a little adventurous with a skin contact white wine, blending Chenin Blanc, Vermentino, Gewürztraminer and Viognier. It’s a delicious addition to the range from this family-run Beechworth producer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2024 ferments on skins and stays there for another 30 days before barrel ageing. That brings plenty of texture and a gentle tannin grip, without the bitterness that can sometimes get in the way with skin-contact whites.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere’s apple, pear and apricot, a little floral perfume and warm spice. It’s dry and generous, with enough freshness to keep things lively and a long, savoury finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGive it a little time in the glass and don’t serve it too cold. Another wholly individual and delicious cuvee from the one-and-only Castagna.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Great depth and amplitude as well as texture ...
