Hughes & Hughes Solstice 2024
$36.00
Bright, juicy novello red blend made to celebrate the vintage.
Fruit from the North West, Coal River and Derwent Valleys picked between 11.5 and 12.5 baume. A novello red made from Pinot Noir (32%), Dornfelder (30%), Syrah (15%), Tempranillo (15%) and Baco Noir (8%). Some whole bunches of Pinot and Baco Noir, some whole berries of everything except the Baco and some juiced Dornfelder. The process won’t be found in any textbook. Pressed to old barrels to complete primary and malolactic ferment. Racked and bottled unfined, unfiltered with no added sulphur
There is a little spritz in this wine from CO2 produced naturally during ferment. This helps keep the wine fresh without the use of added sulphur.
