Sourced from the Forest grove vineyard which provides outstanding fruit from this cooler clime. A spicy cashew citrus and white peach mix on the nose. The palate is intense and powerful but with a refined elegance with a honeysuckle and spiced lemon curd with a backdrop of clean minerality.
Since 1994 Garry and Marian Gosatti have been growing grapes in Margaret River. Their petite single vineyard is inspired by Garry’s Italian heritage, where his great grandfather was capo of the cooperativa winery ‘La Gatta’ in Valtellina (far north of Italy). Today their two sons Jordan and Adrian manage every aspect in the vineyard while Jordan’s wife Paris runs the tiny cellar door. Arlewood’s wines are handcrafted by Cath Oates.
