2023 Black Label Vermentino

Product Info

This special new release wine is the first vintage of handpicked vermentino off our Wilyabrup home vineyard.

Pale straw to the core with a pale green edge with a dry palate of citrus and white fruits with a delicate long finish and a lifted perfume. The citrus and white fruits create a dry, refreshing palate, while the soft and delicate finish lingers on the tongue.

The handpicked vermentino grapes from our Wilyabrup home vineyard are a welcome addition to the Fishbone wine family.

AWARDS & REVIEWS:

The Wine Pilot - Jeni Port - 91 points

"Vermentino’s Italian home is the island of Sardinia and along the Tuscan coast. It fits in pretty well, too, it must be said in the Mediterranean climate of Margaret River where its characteristic grapefruit and citrus qualities shine. This easy going Vermentino, the perfect Sunday arvo drink with friends, boasts a heady mix of grapefruit, lime, apple, chervil and wildflower scents. Very inviting and offering a little more than most styles which can often tend towards the simple. Opens along a nicely textural path to a middle palate boasting a cache of summer fruits – apples, white peach, lemon, grapefruit pith – with a lightly savoury almond nuttiness. Acidity is bright so, too, the overall outlook for this little charmer."
