Overview
Nomads Garden Petillant Naturel is a delicate, naturally sparkling Fiano made from Melville’s Vineyard in Rutherglen, Victoria. Produced with a simple, low-intervention approach and wild yeast fermentation, the 2024 combines fine bubbles, bright natural acidity and a softly textured palate shaped by ageing on lees.
Vineyard
The fruit comes from Melville’s Vineyard on the eastern side of the historic Rutherglen wine region. The Fiano vines were planted in 1997 on red clay loam at approximately 180 metres elevation, with east-west row orientation. The warmer Rutherglen climate is particularly well suited to Mediterranean varieties, while Fiano naturally retains the acidity required for a fresh sparkling style.
Winemaking
The fruit was machine harvested in the cool of the night and pressed immediately on arrival at the winery. Only the clear free-run juice was used, with extraction limited to approximately 450 litres per tonne. The juice was chilled to 3°C for settling, racked off solids and then allowed to warm until natural wild yeast fermentation commenced. Once fermentation was active, the wine was cooled to 13°C for a slow, steady fermentation designed to build aromatic complexity and finesse.
The wine was bottled as a Petillant Naturel and remains undisgorged, retaining its lees in bottle. The only addition during winemaking was nutrients to support a healthy fermentation.
Producer Tasting Notes
A gentle, fine bead with balanced acidity and texture from bottle ageing on lees. Fine-boned, pretty and fresh, with a delicate mouthfeel and restrained carbonation.
Producer
Nomads Garden was established in 2017 by winemaker Ben Dahlenburg and his partner Ellie. Based in Eldorado in North East Victoria, the winery focuses on low-intervention, single-vineyard wines made with wild yeasts and fruit sourced from recognised regions including King Valley, Alpine Valley, Beechworth, Rutherglen and Glenrowan.
