Muto Touriga Nacional 2022

2022 Touriga Nacional, Barmera, Riverland, South Australia

ALC. 13% - Closure: Screw Cap - Vegan Friendly

100% Touriga Nacional from the Bassham Family Organic and Biodynamic vineyard.
Dense & Savoury, with a black fruit profile of bramble, mulberry & cassis with
violet, fragrant cubeb pepper & herbaceous fennel. Full bodied with supple tannins
of complex cedar oak, but supported by excellent acidity.

Hand picked fruit is left mostly whole-bunch, with some foot trodding to loosen up
some juice for wild fermentation. The ferment is punched down by hand, once in the
morning, and once at night. After 14 days the must was basket pressed to 500L
Puncheon barrels (10% new oak) for 10 months of maturation, before being married
into tank by gravity. Bottled, sealed, and labelled on site.
