Gabriella Possum Nungurrayi collection: Heathcote Shiraz 2020

WINE PROFILE

Situated behind the picturesque Goulburn River precinct near Nagambie, Mitchelton winery is home to Australias largest commercial Aboriginal art gallery, The Mitchelton Gallery of Aboriginal Art, which currently features Gabriellas Possum Nungurrayi works.

Featuring the talented artists’ original works on a range of limited wines all produced from fruit sourced across three of Mitcheltons vineyards – in Nagambie, Yarra Valley and Heathcote.

Gabriellas use of colour is some of the most vivid, and her strong connection to Country and her father, with whom she would paint, wander and share stories, are depicted in painted stories such as Bush Tucker, Womens Ceremonies and Seven Sisters Dreaming.

TASTING NOTES

Youthful intense purple red in colour, with vibrant lifted red berry notes, pepper spice, and seamlessly integrated oak. The soft red berry flavours , Christmas pudding and spice carries through on the palate with generous supple mouthfeel. The tannins are fine and talc like with a lovely soft oak balance and length.
