Harvested grapes are pressed in whole bunches, fermented with wild yeast in stainless steel tanks, and bottled when the predetermined residual sugar content is reached.

A pet nut that makes you want to drink in the summer.

Latta Vino was named " Young Winemaker of the Year " by Gourmet Wine Traveler magazine in 2018 and produces exciting wines from the cool climate of Midwest Victoria. " Owen Latta". Owen (born 1984 ) has already gained an overwhelming reputation in Australia as a talented new generation brewer . He is often misunderstood as a genius who suddenly appeared, but in fact, it is a masterpiece that has finally been created due to the complicated history of the Australian wine industry.

Owen is the second generation of the winery " Eastern Peak ", which his parents started planting in 1983 and established in 1994, and literally grew up surrounded by grapes and wine. Eastern Peak is a winery that Owen's parents, who chose to coexist with nature, cultivated fields in Coghills Creek , located at an altitude of 430 m , with legendary Australian winemaker Trevor Mast as their mentor . Since that time, we have continued to cultivate without chemical agents and without irrigation (in recent years, we have used minimal groundwater due to the effects of climate change), and we have avoided excessive manual intervention at the winery. It is said that

Owen made his debut as a brewer in 1999 , when he was just 15 years old. When his father, Norman , left the company due to an accident at work that year, Owen, who was a student at the time, naturally took charge of Vintage. After that, while helping the family business, completed wine science at university. In 2006 , when he returned to take over the winery, he worked as a brewer at another winery, gaining experience and extra income while visiting Europe, mainly in Burgundy. The experience there convinced us that what we were doing was right, and in 2012 we experimented with colorful grapes from the fields of Midwest Victoria (buying grapes from trusted farmers). When we launched " LATTA " to release wines that incorporated many new attempts , we quickly attracted Australian professionals.

The company's fields, which were originally uncontaminated by chemicals, are now transitioning to organic farming, and the transition to biodynamic / biodynamic farming is underway. In terms of brewing, the basic approach is to ferment with wild yeasts and not use additives other than the minimum amount of antioxidants. is built on the However, Owen, who is young and experienced, says, "Everything starts with healthy soil and healthy vines growing there. Winemaking is an extension of that, and it's relatively easy for me. ” he says. That's why critic Mike Benny said, "It's young, but you can feel the depth of experience as an unbelievable maker. It's definitely the top young brewer, but I'm sure it will stand at the top of Australia in the near future." There is a fear that makes you say.
