Producer Note
Named ‘Winery of the Year’ by James Halliday and Matt Skinner, Larry Cherubino
wants his wines to be distinctive and to speak clearly of their variety and vineyard
site. He believes in paying meticulous attention to the vineyard, canopy and water
management, picking at the right time and minimal intervention in the winery. Larry
also makes wine under the Laissez Faire label, an exquisite range of natural wines
which are the ultimate expression of site, made in small batches from hand
harvested grapes. From delicate whites to opulent reds, all his wines have pure class
and finesse.
Vineyard
The vines are grown in various sites across the Great Southern region in Western
Australia, which are influenced by the warm easterly winds from the Great Australian
Bight. The vines are all grown on their own rootstocks and the soil types vary, with
each terroir imparting its own characteristic to the resulting wine.
Winemaking
Great attention was paid to harvesting dates along with gentle destemming and
minimal use of sulphur. Only the free run portion of the juice from selected parcels
was used for this wine, to ensure the elegance and purity of flavour was maintained.
Tasting Note
Almost transparent in colour, this wine shows great purity and refinement. A fragrant
bouquet, with flavours of lemon peel and bath salts all carried along by a soft
texture, a long fine acidity and a persistent finish.
Serving Suggestion
Asian food in particular light, fragrant Thai curries; or beer-battered whiting with
tartare sauce and lemon.
