Quealy Lina Lool 2021
This is named after the aromatic compounds stored in the skins of Moscato Giallo. The 2021 is a blend of Friulano (17%), Moscato Giallo (22%), Riesling (10%), Ribolla Gialla (5%) and Malvasia Istriana (46%), all from Quealy’s Balnarring home block.
Harvested over a two-week period from 30th March, the grapes were co-fermented and left on skins in amphora until the last day of winter. The juice was then basket-pressed with only a light squeeze before being matured in old, large-format oak for 12 months.
According to Tom McCarthy, the 2021 vintage falls into the sublime category. “The upside of La Niña was, of course, no water stress. Flowering was close to perfect. And post véraison was a beautiful run home; no crazy heat and still no significant water stress,” he explains. “All the fruit came in with fully ripe flavour (we had to be patient) and great balance.” Another upside: 2021 is the loveliest version to date of this charismatic wine.
