This year the Yungarra vineyard forms part of the Tinto blend alongside the usual Osmington vineyard. Both sites are managed organically, and the fruit is hand-harvested in the morning to preserve freshness and maintain Tinto’s signature nuevo style. Fermentation begins in small, open-top bins. After five days, the wine is basket-pressed to tank for completion. Again, there are no additions save for a small amount of sulphur at bottling.  No fining, no filtration.

Reviews

“It’s boysenberry, mulberry and woody spices to sniff on. Juicy in the palate with a haze of sandy tannin, fine, tightening, but letting the pretty fruit do its thing. Sloshes along with easy pleasure, stains the palate gently, feels lively to drink and full of come-hither pleasure. Ideal. Summery, but with more to it. More of this thanks.”
92 points, Mike Bennie, The Wine Front
"Made from shiraz and in a youthful style so it’s all upfront fruit of black plums and red cherries spiced to the max with some meaty reduction adding a savoury element. Rather perky acidity and grainy tannins work across a lighter-framed palate, and it ends up a moreish drink. Pass the charcuterie platter, please."
