Summary: Sweet Caroline wines are thoughtfully crafted for an easy-drinking and sophisticated wine experience. These are a refreshing range of wines entirely for those of us who love the softer, light and fruity taste of wine. Each variety is a pure and classic expression showing bright, elegant and gentle sweet fruit flavour that finishes light, soft and very long. You ‘ll know even before you take your first sip, Sweet Caroline is just what you’ve been looking for!
Winemaking: Sourced from a number of vineyards in South Australia and Victoria enabling a selection across a number of microclimates. Each providing a good blend of vibrant, expressive fruit focusing on fruit purity and aromatics. Primarily hand-picked before vinification in a combination of large open fermenters and steel tank. After a cool fermentation the process is ceased to ensure a light touch of fruit sweetness remains to support flavour and mouthfeel. A short maturation for integration and to soften before blending and bottling.
Vintage 2024: Is a wonderful vintage to craft Sweet Caroline wines. An early cold period leading to a mild temperature growing season ensured full and even ripeness was achieved across red and white varieties alike. Yields were down, but flavours were bold and energetic. Parcel selection in the vineyard enabled timely picking of bright, sweet-fruited berries that are perfect for the soft and fruit driven wine style being crafted.
Tasting Note: Bright purple with raspberry red hue. The wine has lifted aromatics of blackberry, plum and vanilla. The palate is bright and juicy with dark berry fruit flavours supported by light brown spices in a softly rounded, fleshy wine. Long and satisfying, finishing refreshing and flavoursome.
