Pale lemon green in the glass, almost water-like. Smells exactly like those everyday Vermentinos you get in Italy for peanuts – white flowers, green apple, pear. Nothing complex and not meant to be. Very low alcohol, medium acid, medium finish. Interesting and drinkable, poolside wine.
Delinquente makes small batch, minimal intervention wines from Southern Italian grape varieties grown in the Riverland, South Australia. They were born and raised in the Riverland, surrounded by vineyards and the mighty Murray River. Organically grown, minimal intervention, honest, hand-made wines that not only are great fun to drink, but represent the sun, the red dirt and uniquely Australian terroir of the Riverland.
