Larry Cherubino Apostrophe Stones Throw Blanc 2015
A delightful blend of Riesling, Gewürztraminer, and Sauvignon Blanc from the Great Southern region of Western Australia. This wine boasts a brilliant water-like color with a faint green tinge around the edges.
On the nose, you’ll find delicate notes of lime, fresh pear, and citrus, complemented by faint hints of lychee and spice. The palate is light and refreshing, with lively flavors of lime, pears, and citrus, intermixed with traces of lychee and spice. The finish is crisp and dry, leaving an aftertaste of lime, lychee, citrus, and a faint touch of spice
The Apostrophe Stones Throw Blanc 2015 is crafted with meticulous care. The grapes are sourced from the Great Southern region of Western Australia, where the cool climate is ideal for producing high-quality Riesling, Gewürztraminer, and Sauvignon Blanc.
The wine is produced with no oak influence, allowing the pure fruit flavors to shine through. After fermentation, the wine undergoes aging in stainless steel tanks to preserve its fresh and vibrant character. This careful production and aging process ensures that the wine maintains its crisp acidity and lively flavors
I’m a first generation Australian. Like many from the great Italian migration, winemaking has always been something I’ve known, pressing grapes on the farms or in the backyards of my own family in Siderno. There’s a tradition of families making wine for families. Cherubino is perhaps that on a much larger scale.
Gewurztraminer
Gewürztraminer is a white grape variety that offers a truly unique and aromatic experience. The grape has a thick skin, which imparts high levels of phenolic compounds, contributing to its distinctive full-bodied, oily-textured palate
Gewürztraminer wines showcase a combination of flavors: Lychee, Stone fruit, spice with hints of ginger and lemongrass, floral and sweetness
Riesling
Riesling is a white grape variety which originated in Germany and now has plantings in many other countries including Alsace, New Zealand and Australia. Riesling is an aromatic grape variety displaying clean fruit and floral aromas, with green apple, and layered citrus flavours. It can make great varietally pure wines across the spectrum, from steely bone-dry examples to unctuous, sweet dessert wines. Its high acidity allows some examples to be extensively aged, where they can develop great complexity.
Sauvignon Blanc
Zesty, fragrant sauvignon blanc is probably the most popular white wine variety in the world right now. But while tropical-fruit tinged New Zealand sauvignon style graces every wine list in the country, it’s worth discovering that there’s much more to this aromatic grape variety than Marlborough.
In its homeland of the Loire Valley, France, sauvignon blanc showcases its aromatic character and refreshing acidity at its best in the form of pure, zesty wines.
The other key region in France for top-quality sauvignon blanc is Bordeaux. It is here that the variety finds itself in bed with its most frequent blending partner, semillon, creating arguably the world’s finest sweet wines in the form of Sauternes and Barsac, along with good quantities of dry, fresh, white wines.
