El Wanderer
Wednesday, July 28, 2010 at 12:28AM Wine maker Andrew Marks has been a friend of mine and Robs for a long time. He is part of a group of young winemakers whose wine label, The Wanderer, has grown and evolved in a similar manner to our business. Andrew is a truly exciting winemaker as well as a really nice guy, so we are happy to introduce to you El Wanderer.
We could only get a few bottles of this rather expensive wine (by our standards). Bottles sit on our list at $92, a little pricey we know. But with Andrew’s minimalist handling principles used when making this wine, we think it’s well worth every penny. The grapes were had picked early in the morning. They were de-stemmed, not crushed and left to soak cold for a week. Maceration of the fermentation was as soft as possible to preserve the fruit and build texture without extraction of excessive tannin. At the completion of fermentation the wine was run into 1 year old French barriques and left on lees for one year until bottling. This may seem like a lot of wine terminology, but it translates into a terrific wine.
El Wanderer is a wine that speaks of the wine region in Spain, Emporda. It is boldly aromatic yet medium bodied. It has great texture and real character, dark fruits and hints of the sea with wafting rustic notes.
Cavallero also holds stock of The Wanderer 2008 ‘Upper Yarra’ Pinot Noir and the 2008 Shiraz. Both are great locally produced wines.
