NOTES
Brown Brothers in Milawa, north-eastern Victoria, is one of the icons of winemaking and wine tourism in Australia. Operated in the King Valley by a pioneering winemaking family, they are always exploring new varieties.
Brown Brothers believe that wines are as different as the ‘people who drink them’ which is why they have developed a comprehensive range of wine styles and blends. With vineyards located in a diverse range of climatic regions and a 'kindergarten' winery specifically designed for innovation, Brown Brothers draws from a patchwork of vineyards to make a number of wines – many such as the Limited Release wines which you will only find at cellar door and a handful of fine wine merchants.
TASTING NOTES
The Patricia range of wines is the culmination of Brown Brothers' commitment to viticultural and winemaking excellence. The Patricia name is a dedication for Patricia Brown's hard work and the love she has given her family. Careful vineyard site selection and the utmost care in winemaking approach has maximised flavour and retained the elegance of these wines, they are sure to impress.
The Patricia Brut shows a golden straw colour with a fine persistent bead. The nose is lifted with a rich yeast autolysis character and hints of citrus and apple. The palate is full bodied, complex and rich with prominent yeast autolysis characters and citrus flavours, with a bready character that lingers. The palate is creamy and elegant with a crisp, dry finish and refreshing acidity.
