James Kalleske Wines Short Stories Barossa Valley Nouveau 2023

Aromas of bubblegum, morello cherries, and chocolate-dipped strawberries. A juicy and characterful Nouveau-style red that is best served cool. Designed to drink now.

Winemaking Notes:

We take a novel — and very frugal — winemaking approach to this Nouveau-style red. Rather than simply doing a full carbonic maceration on red varietals, we utilise the skins of our premium Grenache and Shiraz grapes from our Rosé production. These are fermented with Chardonnay to extract tannin and flavour before being blended with a portion carbonic maceration Alicante Bouschet.
