Before being taken hostage west by the mind blowing Great Southern grapes, winemaker Andrew Hoadley worked all over Australia’s cool and hot zones and in Piedmont, Abruzzo and Washington State. His wines are a breath of fresh air, some playful, fun and light-hearted, others more serious and structured. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"la-violetta-2024-spunk-nat-petillant-naturel","title":"La Violetta - 2024 'Spunk Nat' Pétillant Naturel","description":"\u003cp\u003eChewy, textural, zippy.

It pours a pretty, pale pink with a gentle, fine froth. Expect all the floral, grapey delight you want from Muscat - rose petals, orange blossom - plus a lick of mandarin pith citrus and a subtle, savoury complexity from barrel ferment. There’s gentle texture from mineral phenolics, balanced sweetness of fruit, and a clean, dry finish. Perfectly chilled on the patio, it’s the ultimate laidback sparkling. This is our eighth release from this unique single site of black-skinned Muscat in the Ferguson Valley. Making it is always a bit of a love letter to the variety’s soul - taking me back to autumn days shovelling moscato skins in the Alta Langa, but with our own laidback, dodge-the-emus-on-the-gravel-road Aussie spin. 2024 threw us a curveball with an early season - everything ripened 3-4 weeks ahead of usual, so we scrambled to pick in the cool of the night to lock in natural acidity. Grapes came in at a near-perfect 13°C. After 20 hours of skin contact for colour and aromatics, it was pressed to tank and old puncheons for a slow, wild eight-week ferment. Bottled without fining or filtration, sealing in the last fizz of fermentation. Careful work with the sugar level this year means minimal sediment and a soft, easy-going sparkle - no disgorging needed. Hurrah! We always add a splash (about 7%) of Great Southern Riesling for citrus focus and extra zip on the finish. Wild yeast, slow ferment, and pure site expression deliver pristine aromatics and a refreshingly dry, textural palate. Out on the patio we sip, baby.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Andrew Hoadley, La Violetta Wines\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"La Violetta","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47164369666301,"sku":"26014","price":42.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0026\/6754\/4640\/files\/Winona-Wine-La-Violetta-2025-Patio-Nat-La-Violetta-Wine.png?v=1779971121"},{"product_id":"la-violetta-2024-la-violetta-lounge-d-or","title":"La Violetta - 2024 La Violetta ‘Lounge D’Or’","description":"\u003cp\u003eDid you ever want to be the Queen of the Divan?

Pretty florals, citrus notes and your favourite flavour gummi bears. There’s vibrant intensity here, with complexing textures from parcels of skin contact Vermentino, lees aged Riesling and Gewurz, plus a tiny splash of Grenache. Sourced from Swinney’s vineyard in Great Southern and showing all the trademark saline minerality and length of flavour we know and love from this site. It’s aromatherapy in a glass.
