Delinquente Screaming Betty Vermentino
Bold and bright, a distinct passionfruit, tropical vibe presents up front. Structural and herbaceous – lemon thyme grassiness on the palate with a subdued citrus, stonefruit push in the background. Classic Vermentino on the finish – briney, seaspray savouriness with lots of flavour, lovely acidity, old world in feel - a unique interpretation of Vermentino in this country.
Wild fermented in stainless steel, the wine also spent 4 weeks on fine lees, stirred twice weekly, giving it a beautiful, textural edge not often found in Australian Vermentino’s. The cooler vintage conditions meant that acids remained high, even as sugar levels increased and flavours developed, meaning we have a little higher ABV than previous years, but also more depth of flavour, whilst not compromising freshness and drinkability.
