Description

d'ARENBERG BROKEN FISHPLATE SAUV BLANC 75 CL
Since 1912 the Osborn family have tended vineyards in South Australia. Today fourth generation family member Chester makes distinctive wines using traditional methods both in the vineyard and the winery. The fruit for the this wine is sourced from the cool climate Adelaide Hills. Small batches of grapes are gently crushed, chilled, and then basket pressed. To add complexity and mouthfeel, a small percentage of the wine is partially fermented in aged French oak for two to three weeks. Despite being a good match for fish, the name has nothing to do with them. A fishplate is a term for the metal plates that collect grape bunches on a harvester, and often break when navigating around the steep, windy vineyards.

Regional Information

It has been a good winter, the early Spring rains set the vines up very well. November was about 3 degrees colder than average and so the set was variable. Luckily, many varieties still had quite a large potential crop, so yields ended about 15% down from 2021 (which was a big crop year). This too set the vines up very well. There was almost no rain and very mild conditions in February, March and April, free of hot or cold spells which resulted in very good leaf retention and ripening. All varieties resulted in outstanding wines.

Vinification Details

The fruit for this wine is sourced from the cool climate Adelaide Hills. Small batches of grapes are gently crushed, chilled, and then transferred to stainless steel basket presses. Gentle extraction of the juice is critical in these early stages to retain the delicate fruit characters. To add complexity and mouthfeel, a small percentage of the wine is partially fermented in aged French oak for two to three weeks.

History

Despite being a good match for fish, the name has nothing to do with them! A fishplate is a term for the nylon plates that collect grape bunches on a harvester, and often break when navigating around the steep, windy vineyards.
