Shadowfolk Vineyard - The Mystics 2021 (750ml) JucarThis wine is a sort of tribute to my Australian mentor, with whom I started to work on orange wines. Grape: Riesling Vineyard: Old head trained vines on steep slopes. Grey and blue slate, very poor soil. Farmed biodynamically by Petra herself. Making of: Grapes are hand harvested and fermented as whole bunches for 270 days, without any manipulation at all (no mixing, no pumping, no stomping). Pressed and aged on lees for 350 days. Indigenous yeast
