The Wine
Vermentino from First Ridge in Mudgee makes up most of the blend, harvested early in the season and sent to concrete as whole berries for a steady three-week fermentation on skins before being pressed to stainless steel, where it spent the next 10 months on full yeast lees. The remaining third is Sauvignon Blanc from Chalou, fermented and matured in older barriques on full yeast lees for 10 months. A touch of skin contact adds to its easy-drinking charm, with aromatic, textural layers of white nectarine and honeydew melon, accented by hints of white pepper and spice.

About the Wine Maker 
Mark & Sandy Renzaglia took on the challenge of establishing a small vineyard in O’Connell Valley near Bathurst in 1997. There was no power, no town water, no neighbours growing grapes, just determination. Now their son Sam is on the hunt, taking Renzaglia Wines to the next level, seeking modern expressions from grapes sourced locally, and really pushing the conversation around responsible, sustainable, respectful farming in NSW. Renzaglia The family home, the Bella Luna Vineyard, and the winery are nestled in the rolling hills of the locality of O’Connell. It looks out over the O’Connell Valley to the north-east and further towards the Winburndale Nature Reserve, Mt Ovens and Mt Horrible. From this patch of dirt, the Renzaglia family have been tending to two acres of Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot since 1997. Recent plantings of Tempranillo, Grenache, Shiraz, Viognier, and Chardonnay were added to the mix in 2020, plus Sangiovese this year.
