Wines by Sorrenberg

Sorrenberg Beechworth Gamay 2011

The Morey family can boast of a winemaking tradition spanning five centuries along the Mosel River Valley. Their 2½ hectare vineyard on the outskirts of Beechworth now makes exclusive use of the finest local fruit. The Gamay grape traditionally makes a light bodied fruity wine, its thin skin yields little in the way of tannin for a forward style which drinks superbly on release. Sorrenberg work to a combination of Burgundy and Beaujolais techniques, producing an even more striking Gamay wine through the inclusion of a minor portion Pinot Noir.

Barry and Jan Morey selected Beechworth for it's cool climate and favourable granitic soil, the undulating site providing good drainage while the northern aspect ensures full ripeness is achieved. The name Sorrenberg comes from a small vineyard near a town called Reil on the Mosel. Sorrenberg's fruit is picked cold, half of the Gamay is cold macerated, crushed and left to soak for several days before the onset of fermentation, a further component is vinified as whole berries. Inoculated by natural yeasts and vinified over a period of two weeks on skins, after which the wine is pressed and matured in oak for eleven months.

Purple red hue. Ripe cherry nose with a hint of berries and spice. The fruit follows on to the palate with warm spicy overtones. Well balanced palate, a soft fruitful acidity fuses with finely grained, well proportioned tannins that support a classic peppery mouthfeel. The silkiness up front combines with the fine grain tannins to give good length on an overall luscious mouthfeel. Approachable upon release and will develop deeper savoury characters if aged.
