Description
Second label from Barossan cult producer, Spinifex. Known for their attention to detail, hands on winemaking and precision for blending… their wines are all about finesse and complexity. Made from the same parcels of fruit that go into the Spinifex wines, Miette is made in a more forward, open style meaning they are approachable right now! As winemaker Pete Schell says .. “the wines are all about freshness, purity and balance. Wines made for food, family and friends.”
Think elegance, floral delicacy, red fruits and refreshing, finely structured tannins and then look at the price. Bargain. The nose tempts with wafts of smoke, floral notes, and blueberry. This is followed by a succulent, layered and spicy palate that screams “DRINK ME“. Although it’s made with immediate consumption in mind, there’s plenty of structure and interest to suggest it will age well.
95 Points, James Halliday’s 2016 Australian Wine Companion … “Pete Schell does not have to be lectured about alcohol levels one way or the other. He is interested in balanced flavour ripeness, here achieve without apparent effort. Red fruits certainly play the main theme, but there are also some darker fruit notes linked to the ripe tannins that make up the whole. Bargain.”
