Quealy Wines Friulano 2022 (6 Bottles) Mornington Peninsula

Quealy sourced their cuttings from the vineyard of Slovenian émigré Denis Pasut in Mildura, grafting over a block of their 1996 Chardonnay at their Balnarring vineyard as early as 2003. Inspired by his father’s skinsy 2008 Claudius (under the T’Gallant label) and his time spent in Northern Italy, Tom McCarthy’s Turbul is a careful selection of the estate’s ripest Friulano, fermented wild on skins in 800-litre terracotta amphorae. In 2021 the wine spent 141 days on skins without any SO2 addition and was stirred daily.
