Description
Gundagai 2025 is a natural wine crafted by Aristotelis Ke Anthoula (Australia), in the Riverland region in Australia. This white wine is made with 100% Chenin Blanc grapes.
Tony Zafirakos and Maddison Park-Neilson source Chenin Blanc from Gundagai in New South Wales, Australia where the grapes grow in volcanic soil. The fruit is directly pressed and aged for seven months in old French oak barrels. Wild fermentation, with no additions at any stage.
We first tried this wine, limited to 1300 bottles, at Karakterre wine fair in Austria earlier this year, and actually bought half a palette right there on the spot, as Australian natural wine in Europe is hard to come by and they had brought just one palette to Europe with them. We had to get their wines!
Expect a solid, crisp Chenin with notes of preserved lemon, sherbert candies, white peach, apple and mild pineapple core on the palate, with hints of salt, wet stone and honeysuckle nectar complemented with a bright acidity. Serve cold and if you have some oysters nearby… this would be a cool fit!
