2022 Whistler Wines Fruit Tingle – Frizzante 750ml

Story Behind The Label

Made for those who enjoy a hint of sweetness. This spritzy frizzante has just the right amount of bubbles. It’s a fruit basket of flavour across your palate and like our resident Galahs, it’s best enjoyed with friends.

The Fruit

This wine is made up of three grape varieties- 46% Muscat Blanc, 31% Semillon and 23% Chardonnay. The Muscat Blanc & Chardonnay was grown by Greg Barritt, down at Rowland Flat towards the southern end of the Barossa Valley. The Semillon was grown on the sandy soils of Light Pass by the Rohrlach Family.

Winemaking

All three grape varieties were picked on the same morning and pressed to tank. From there they were cold settled before being rough racked. Natural fermentation took place and and sugar was stopped at 24g/L using cooling. CO2 was added during the bottling process at 4.5g/L.

The Wine

This wine is designed to be fun, so don’t take it too seriously. It has a hint of sweetness and a spritz that leaves you feeling refreshed and wanting more. Dangerously smashable stuff!
