Dormilona Orenji Semillon Sauvignon Blanc 2024 (6 Bottles) Margaret River

$167.00 GST Included

AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

In this year’s rendition of Orenji, Semillon takes centre stage at 80% of the blend, with the balance made up by Sauvignon Blanc. The Semillon is grown at Jo’s organically managed site in Yungarra, while the Sauvignon Blanc is sourced from Ben and Naomi Gould’s certified-organic Blind Corner site in Wilyabrup.

So, the farming couldn’t be better, and you can taste as much in this pure, snappy, dangerously drinkable wine. The fruit is picked by hand in the cool of the morning and ferments on skins in open fermenters for two weeks. After another eight weeks in a cement egg, the wine is pressed to barrel and egg.

It undergoes full malolactic conversion before bottling with minimal sulphur and without fining or filtration.

About Dormilona

Josephine Perry is one of the most exciting emerging producers in Margaret River. Her Dormilona label is setting a new tone for the region.

A self-confessed ‘lazy-bones’ winemaker, Jo is low-intervention in the winery, instead focusing her energies on the quality of fruit that she brings in the winery.

She uses only organically and biodynamically farmed fruit from high-quality vineyards across Margaret River and is bringing an alt-styling to the way she produces the hero varieties of this famous region.

These are Margaret River wines with flair and originality. From vineyard to glass, Jo handcrafts each wine with love and tender hands. An authentic producer who’s rightfully gaining plenty of attention.

Fine Wine Cellars

On the one hand, our role as a merchant of all things wine & spirits could not be simpler. We aim to source the most delicious, the most authentic, and the highest quality products possible from Australia and around the world in order to offer them to our clients. We live or die by how well we perform this task. Of course things are rarely as simple or as easy as they seem. Hunting for wines & spirits is no different. Apart from the months spent travelling, countless days and evenings spent tasting and the outrageous wine expenditure in the name of ‘research’, sourcing quality wine and spirits requires expertise and experience. Understanding the potential of a producer and their products is much more than just a slurp and a spit.
