Description:
Clo is the project of Chris Loth, longtime member of the team at Annandale Cellars in Sydney and now a very talented winemaker, with the establishment of his Clo project in 2013 coupled with stints in France with such wonderful producers as Jean Foillard and François Rousset-Martin.
This comes from the high-elevation vineyard of Gordon Hill in Orange, NSW. The grapes were hand-picked and basket-pressed to old barrels for fermentation on full solids, and later left untopped for 12 months to develop oxidative characteristics under flor. The final wine is medium-weighted and fresh with stone fruit primary flavours underscored by layers of secondary and tertiary nuance, abundant in saline and nutty characters which lend savoury intensity.
Another brilliant offering from an exciting producer who has recently been going from strength to strength. Cheers Chris!
