Delinquente Wine - Screaming Betty - Vermentino 2023
Delinquente Wines are a natural winemaking company based in the Riverland area of South Australia. They use minimal intervention in the winery, allowing wild, ambient yeasts to occur to start the fermentation process, using no chemical aids or preservatives and using minimal fining or filtering processes. They also source their grapes from local organic farmers. They make small batches of wine, focusing on quality over quantity, and use typical Italian grape varieties which thrive in this area of Australia due to their great resistance to drought. The wines are made to represent themselves and the 'sun, the red dirt and the uniquely Australian terroir of the Riverland.'
Screaming Betty is made with 100% Vermentino, giving intense passionfruit flavours and aromas. There are herbal notes with a stereotypical salinity on the finish. It is bold and pronounced, bolstered by a refreshing acidity and with a rounded out mouthfeel from a period of lees stirring.
