Noodle Juice by Year Wines | McLaren Vale, SA | 2020

Taste: A fun blend of Grillo and Arneis that has a little funk, sass and slips down like a good bowl of noodles; It will be gone before you know it. Citrus, apple and honeydew fruits fill the palate here, with a structured silky, savoury mouthfeel and zingy acidity that leaves you ready for your next top up.

Mood: When you want something fun, this is your guy.

Grass Roots and Chi: Year wines are a husband and wife team who first laid eyes on each other working at a cellar door in South Australia. Eight years on and two kids later they are working hard to produce minimal intervention wines that are super small batch from Mclaren Vale, with only 30-50 dozen being made of each varietal.

 Their ethos is ‘Hard work in the vineyard and be hands off in the Winery’ with the grapes being sourced from sustainable vineyards and wild fermented in a mixture of older oak and stainless steel. They use gravity pumps to transfer the juice from tank to barrel and allow Malolactic fermentation to occur (producing those beautiful rich creamy textures). The wines are then bottled without fining of filtering.
