Vinea Marson Nebbiolo 2017

With a delicately hued, orange tint, this wine presents a lively nose brimming with an abundance of both sweet and savory aromas. Notes of tar intermingle with the bitter essence of orange amaro, offering a tantalizing olfactory experience. On the palate, the red fruits reveal a slight tartness compared to their aromatic counterparts, with flavors of redcurrants and cherries imparting a refreshing quality. These fruity notes seamlessly transition to hints of tar, culminating in a gratifyingly bitter finish that lingers on the palate.

Nestled in Heathcote, Central Victoria, Vinea Marson is a charming family-owned winery. Mario draws inspiration from his Italian roots; his grandfather's mastery of Friulano, Cabernet, and Merlot, and his father's backyard vines in Melbourne, where Italian wine flowed nightly alongside hearty meals. Joined by his wife Helen and daughters Laura, Madeleine, and Emily, they founded Vinea Marson in 2000. Since then, they've passionately tended vines in Heathcote's ancient soils, crafting premium wines enjoyed locally and internationally.
