Pride of Lunatics - Trippin' Round the Sun 'Light Red' 2023

There's so much in this. 50% Merlot, 20% Syrah, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Muscat. All underwent carbonic maceration then whole bunch pressed to neutral American oak barrels. Wild yeast fermentation and left on lees for a few months.

A little tart. Cranberry juice, or something red with hints of iron, an ode to the steely red planet. Enjoy it chilled, or not too chilled, or not chilled at all. But the wine itself is chill. 

"Our winemaking philosophy is to do sweet-fuck-all, and hope that the resulting wines are full of energy, freshness and flavour.

Wine is best enjoyed with good friends & good food, and as we enjoy an eclectic array of good friends and foods, having a universally “food-friendly” wine is imperative. 

All wines are fermented using wild yeasts, no acid additions are made and no fining or filtration occurs.

These wines are a pure expression of our unique site and farming methods."
