Delinquente makes small batch, minimal intervention wines from Southern Italian grape varieties grown in the Riverland, South Australia.They were born and raised in the Riverland, surrounded by vineyards and the mighty Murray River. Delinquente is an attempt at making the best wine possible from the place where the owners grew up. Organically grown, minimal intervention, hand-made wines that not only look great and are fun to drink, but that also represent the sun, the red dirt and uniquely Australian terroir of the Riverland.
750 mlWild fermented in stainless steel, Nero d’Avola is a native Sicilian variety that is perfect suited to the hot, dry climate of the Riverland. An incredibly versatile variety, while many know Nero d’Avola for the big bold reds of Sicily, with its sour cherry and naturally high acidity, we they feel it is the perfect variety for rose. On the palate, there's a certain elegance – the fruit forward flavours persist, while the classic Nero d’Avola acidity comes in to keep things fresh and crunchy; evolving the flavours into a slightly underripe stonefruit spectrum – white peach or nectarine.
