Patritti Jimmy's Hat 2010


In the past people have gone down the same path but today’s winemakers are pushing for texture and different flavours that have a little more restraint than the wines from a decade ago.

Patritti Jimmy's Hat 2010

So much texture and richness yet the wine ends with bright acidity and freshness. It is easy to see how they can do it as the wine is a blend of Savagnin, Arneis and Pinot Grigio from the cool Adelaide Hills region. With each component the wine fills itself out across the palate but it is the core of the wine that is impressive. I would grab a dozen of these and spank them out over summer whenever someone comes around.
