The sweetness of the wine comes from picking the fruit later with higher levels of natural sugar, then stopped fermentation before the wine is completely dry. We are left with a delightfully still dessert wine that tastes like roses and strawberries and is perfect to accompany berries, fruit pies and soft cheeses.

Brachetto is an ancient Italian wine grape variety dating back to Roman times and is only planted in a few vineyards in Australia. We select the best quality grapes from the harvest to create our still (tranquillo) Brachetto. It follows the traditional fashion and allows us to showcase the strawberry and rose water flavours at their best.

“Delicate floral fragrances and tasting of limes and quince with nice sweetness and a tightening grip on the finish.”
