- TASTING NOTE: Quite floral aromatically with roses, lavender and fresh cherry. The palate sees crunchy cherry, fresh raspberry and stewed plums meet savoury sage and rosemary, the slightest hint of cocoa powder. Light on its feet with fresh acidity and some rusty iron and salty minerality make it moresih and salivating.
-
ABOUT THE WINE: Organic Grenache and Mourvedre from two parcels in Nagambie Lakes. Grenache is fully destemmed then wild fermented in cement with regular pump overs. The Mourvedre was whole bunch pressed to stainless for a cool ferment and then rested on lees for a few months. Blended and then bottled unfined and unfiltered.

ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Little Reddie is the negociant project of sommelier turned winemaker Pat Underwood. Pat runs his winery out of Colbinabbin and Malmsbury, Victoria. His first vintage was 2015. The strength in this tiny label is talent and exuberance of Pat himself: he's dedicated to uncovering unique vineyards in Central Victoria, whether it’s tiny dry-grown plots in Malmsbury, obscure plantings of indigenous Venetian varieties or deep red, iron rich sites planted to beautifully bloody and mineral Nebbiolo. His relationships with his growers are fierce, in part due to his charming personality, but also because he works alongside them wherever he can, sharing ethics and values on the land and in the cellar. Pat’s wines are made with passionate intuition and minimal intervention across the board—not necessarily with the aim of producing 'low fi' wine he says, but to give a truer representation of the season and terroir. He thus calls it 'hi-fi'.
