Dormilona Tinto 750ml
Dormilona Tinto 750ml
Dormilona is the Margaret River label of Josephine Perry, which emerged in 2013 and was recognised almost immediately with the inaugural Best New Act trophy at the Young Gun of Wine Awards. Perry started working vintages at Cape Mentelle at fourteen, studied winemaking by distance education while chasing harvests through France, Spain, New Zealand and California, then came home to build a low intervention project on organically and biodynamically farmed fruit. The winery itself is now certified organic.
Tinto is Shiraz drawn from the organically farmed Osmington vineyard and made in a nouveau style for early drinking. Medium bodied at most, it leads with vibrant red fruit and peppery spice over a fine but firm structure, finishing dry and savoury with a juicy, slippery texture. Best served lightly chilled.
Fermentation is wild, in open bins, using whole bunches and whole berries. The wine is basket pressed off to tank before the sugar has finished so the ferment completes slowly, moves through malolactic fermentation naturally, then is racked and blended ahead of bottling. There are no additions, no fining and no filtration, with only minimal sulphur and no oak signature.
