Ochota Barrels
The Green Room Grenache Noir Syrah
Adelaide Hills, Mount Lofty Ranges, South Australia, Australia
Mid Crimson in colour with a slight cloudiness. Fresh plummy skinnsy aromas - also notes of freshly cut Guava said the wife. Stems and stalks have been included in the ferment with 88 days on Skins. A 92/8 Grenache/Syrah Blend. Light to medium bodied palate of jubey fruit pastilles - like grape juice. Medium intensity with almost zero tannins. Designed to be drunk young with gusto.! The Green Room being a surfing term for being under the lip in the Barrel - Taras Ochota being a keen surfer would have been in the Green Room many times in Barrels off Mexico. A delicious natural wine - no need to cellar.

Nov 8th, 2018New wine from Taras. Very good, young fresh Riesling. Rapier acid. Fine flavours of minerals and citrus. Almost pithy on the palate. Lovely

Jun 18th, 20162013 vintage. Sought this wine out for some time, only to have it fall in my lap during a tasting. Fresh, vibrant, snappy, and quite linear for what most expect out of Australia. New to the list at Mintwood Place...10 bottles and counting. Get there before I buy all of it for myself! #rundontwalk
