Vinea Marson Friulano 2021
$34.00
Experts can indeed make exceptional skin-contacted white wines, and here’s one from Mario Marson. Its heady, faintly meaty aromas of yellow flowers, green apple skin, lime and dried herbs reveal a faint mineral note. At once luscious and creamy, it’s also fine and mouthwatering, with a long, layered palate of stonefruit, apple and pear-like fruit underpinned by a fine chalkiness and finished with lingering nuances of crabapple, blood orange and lime, all wrapped in a vital acidity. Summer afternoon drinking for when summer finally arrives…

Vinea Marson
Mario Marson left a long and distinguished incumbency with Dr John Middleton at Mount Mary before heading to Heathcote in 1999 to develop his own vineyard. One of the dictums he picked up from Middleton was to focus on multi-clonal vineyards, something that was reinforced to him while spending time in Italy, especially with Paolo di Marchi at Isole e Olena. Marson's wines are about an un-Heathcote-like as most wine drinkers could imagine, since they deftly marry the perfume and brightness of (comparatively) early-harvested fruit with subtle and savoury qualities. His varietal selections enable him to explore his Italian heritage and contribute to the broadening spectrum of quality wine in Victoria.
