LAS Vino Vermentino 'Marea'
James Halliday's 2023 Dark Horse Winery of the Year winner LAS Vino's winemaker Nic Peterkin had a crazy idea after visiting winemaker Teresa Castellani...an Australian first, submerging bunches of Vermentino in ocean water, before draining, pressing & fermenting.
Margaret River has always cherished it's connection with the coast and this wine builds on this profound connection. He has gained insights into the challenges & possibilities that saltwater presents in the face of climate change & salinity concerns affecting agricultural lands.
Immersing the grapes in the Gracetown ocean, he didn't know what to expect, but the results are astounding! There is a distinct flavour profile, clearly influenced by the ocean.
There is a very limited amount available for purchase.
