Vino is today. Nic has consistently produced wines that push boundaries and show a penchant for his calculated, out-of-the-box style of thinking. Whether it is alternate fermentation vessels, wildly extended time on skins (one nebbiolo once spent something like 400+ days on skins), experimental processes (fermenting grapes in sea water, or using the yeast of native flora, for example) Nic throws himself at wine with freshness and a vivacity and a curiosity that are catching. To say that the wines are expressive, and individual is true, but it doesn’t quite tell the whole story. These wines have a tendency to extract unexpected descriptors, flavours and experiences from the writer, and the drinker, all the while portraying a classicism and accuracy of site that make them so brilliant”\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"S1PPyQ\"\u003e– Erin Larkin – Halliday Wine Companion\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNic’s probably already over the comparisons but when you’re the son of the founder of Pierro Dr Mike Peterkin and Shelly Cullen it’s hard not to take note. His attention to detail doesn’t simply stop at what is frankly very smart packing. Going back to the origin of what’s in the bottle he is hand picking, hand sorting, hand stirring. Its serious business and a clear vision of quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"L.A.S.
