Product description
Owned by Owen and Cassandra Inglis since 2004, Sidewood is already starting to get noticed. Highly respected critic James Halliday gave them a five-star rating in both the 2016 and 2018 editions of Wine Companion. Made by award winning winemakers whose CVs include top wineries such as Penfolds and Shaw & Smith, their wines are absolutely stunning. Only the best grapes are selected from the Sidewood estate to make the Mappinga Art Series. The winemaking philosophy is simple – to create stylish, elegant, high quality wine.
Hints of pear, ripe peach and honeydew melon on the nosé . Following through onto the palate the flavours are enhanced with subtle hints of honey and nutmeg from the influence of 8 months maturation in French Oak barrels.

Hand-picked Dijon clones, partial whole-bunch pressed, wild-fermented, French oak (30% new), best barrel selection. Very powerful and complex. Reduction may be an issue for some - or is it early harvest?
