Description
Rusden’s Wildwood Cinsault is a light bodied red that captures Vine Vale’s sandy terroir in a chillable format. It’s ideal for those seeking a delicate Australian red with Old vine character.
Farmed on alluvial sand close to Rusden’s homestead, the Cinsault block includes rare vines dating from the 1960s. Hand harvested fruit is fermented in small open bins.
This limited?release Cinsault is unique for its combination of musk stick aromatics and red fruit brightness, perfect for casual drinking or adventurous wine collectors.
Winemaking: Cold soak for five days, wild yeast fermentation in stainless steel, gentle pressing and a short maturation on fine lees to retain freshness.
Pairing Suggestions: Charcuterie board, tomato and basil bruschetta, grilled halloumi with chilli jam.
Tasting Note: The nose shows pine needles, musk stick and white pepper. The palate offers raspberry, cranberry and red liquorice, all wrapped in a silky frame.
