Vino Volta Methode Ancestrale Chenin Blanc, Swan Valley, Western Australia 2022
Vino Volta opened in 2018 and has already made waves for some of the best natural wines coming out of Australia. A must-know name from Western Australia, and this zero-sulfur Chenin pet-nat is a perfect introduction.
Tasting Notes
"Gently sparkling, with white grapefruit pith, lemon sherbet, sweet-skinned desert lime and white lilies. Tart fruit and florals carry through a clean, linear, zesty palate with a white-rock minerality. Fun, complex and very easy to drink." — Harvest Wine Shop
