Wine

Longview Saturnus Nebbiolo, made only in exceptional vintages, draws from one of the oldest continuously producing Nebbiolo vineyards in Australia, planted by Longview in 1995.

The grapes are handpicked during the coolest part of the day and sorted in the vineyard, ensuring they meet a quality benchmark. They are delivered to the winery immediately for vinification with traditional techniques.

The wine is left on skins for 3-4 weeks, then matured in six and seven year old French oak puncheons. It is bottled without fining or filtration.

Deep red purple, Longview Saturnus Nebbiolo is complex and spicy with rich, savoury fruit flavours, refreshing acidity and dusty tannins. Cellaring potential is seven years.
