Delinquente Jaybird Bianco Macerato 2025

Delinquente Jaybird Bianco Macerato 2025The combination of fruit forward, acid driven and aromatic varieties, combined with extended skin contact, creates a wine that is at once thought provoking, interesting, but also refreshing and delicious. Peach and nectarine with a rose blossom flourish on the nose gives way to grassy freshness upfront, then a dry crunch like a salty jatz, before a crazy pineapple lychee tropical hit at the end. So fun to drink. Fiano, Arinto and Malvasia Bianco from

The combination of fruit forward, acid driven and aromatic varieties, combined with extended skin contact, creates a wine that is at once thought provoking, interesting, but also refreshing and delicious. Peach and nectarine with a rose blossom flourish on the nose gives way to grassy freshness upfront, then a dry crunch like a salty jatz, before a crazy pineapple/lychee tropical hit at the end. So fun to drink.

Fiano, Arinto and Malvasia Bianco from the Bassham family organic vineyard in Barmera, SA.

The Bianco Macerato is an easy drinking, approachable skin contact white wine. Each parcel was fermented separately – the Fiano is pressed off skins straight away, while the other parcels were fermented on skins for 6 nights. Each parcel was allowed to go through malolactic fermentation and settle out before being blended just prior to bottling.
