Aged in oak for 24 months and then a further 12 months in tank and 6 months in bottle before it hits the shelves. Berries over spice, over earth, this is what the Spanish varietal is all about.
La Petite Mort is the black sheep of the Bent Road Wine family, situated on the Ballandean on the Granite Belt, Queensland. Purchased in 2000 by the current owner, the property stretches 40 hectares of vines on the Severn River. These small batch, experimental wines are produced with minimal wine making intervention and put into bottles without filtering or fining. Rustic and characterful, LPM wines promise a unique sensory experience and an interesting story behind every label.
