About this product
Bryan didn’t make a Hilltops Nebbiolo in 2020, so the 2021 is a welcome return. Sourcing is from the Bit of Heaven and Grove vineyards in Tumbarumba. The fruit is fermented and left on skins in ten-hectolitre oak cuves for eight months. The wine is then pressed back to cask and transferred to foudre for a further 12 months before being bottled in May.

95 points Halliday Wine Companion
“No mucking around here: this spends six months on skins in 1000L cuves, then aged 18 months in foudre. While the tannins are pomace-like and grainy, all in a positive way, they are perfectly ripe, rendering this a pleasure to drink, and it’s backed up with good flavour and structure. Spicy red fruits, cherries and plums mainly, a distinct blood orange/chinotto flavour but remains steadfastly savoury. Medium bodied, lively acidity and an almost cooling finish. Excellent Aussie nebbiolo.” 95 points, Jane Faulkner, The Wine Companion
