2024 Muto Prosecco

Muto Wine is operated by the Smit family, based in Tallarook, Victoria. They utilise climate-appropriate, alternative varieties to produce wines that are characterised by their integrity, thoughtful production, and pure drinkability.
Sourced from the Chalmers Merbein vineyard, destemmed fruit was basket pressed to tank for wild-fermentation and matured on lees for 6 months. Bubbles were created using the Charmat method before bottling on site with minimal sulphur.
A lacy mousse subsides to reveal a pale straw coloured core that has pale gold tinged edges and a very fine bead flowing through it. Drifting through the nose are attractive ripe pear, baked apple and quince scents followed by some subtle dried honey and toast notes. Vividly crisp green apple, quince and lemon fruits have a zippy, electric like feel across the palate. Finishes bone dry and chalky with some minerality also evident.
