Terra Felix 2005 Marsanne Roussanne
The wine consists of Central Victorian (red duplex soils)
Marsanne and Roussanne. High solid ferments and yeast lees contract
to highlight textural qualities. The wine undergoes 20% malolactic
fermentation and is matured on low level (10%) new oak.
The wine has a yellow straw colour. Enhanced by wild yeast and
lees contact, Marsanne has the nuts and honey. Roussanne the citrus
hints and blossom perfume. A small portion of reserve wine has been
added to give the wine a rich, complex palate and finish.
