SANUR, Bali (BPN) – Hatten Wines announces the launch of its ‘NEW’ Family, the Hatten Wines Sweet Syrah for which distribution starts to circulate the first week of December 2021, and TWO Islands’ new Grenache.
The Hatten Wines Sweet Syrah is a sweet red wine made from their own local Balinese vineyards. It is 70 percent Syrah, with a little bit of Malvasia Nera giving freshness and Muscat Bleu giving floral, fruity aromatics.
Hatten Wines treat this wine very gently in order to extract the softer tannins and maintain a medium-body that balances with the sweetness. The wine is aged for 5 months using American oak, which is sweeter, has softer tannins, and has more coconut and vanilla on the aroma.
The first Sweet Syrah on Indonesia’s local market is a soft, sweet, and luscious wine, so wine lovers can enjoy pairing it with grilled meats and spicy dishes. This is a wine that matches the tropical climate really well, and it will have drinkers gladly reaching for a second glass.
“It is medium-bodied, with well-balanced sweetness and a touch of toasty, sweet oak on the mid-palate and finishes. Redberry fruit characters dominate the flavor spectrum, and the finish is long and peppery due to the unique growing conditions in Bali. I’m certain the new Hatten Wines Sweet Syrah will take Bali by storm,” said the winemaker of Hatten Winery, James Kalleske.
As for the Two Islands’ new Grenache wine, bringing the range to ten varieties.
Grenache is one of the oldest grape varieties in South Australia, with a history dating back to the 1830s. Historically it has been used to make sweet, fortified wines with light color and tannin, and high alcohol.
But more recently Grenache has entered a renaissance in Australia, with its popularity as a lighter-bodied red wine booming. People love its easy-drinking nature, medium-light body, and its floral and berry fruit flavors.
The newest Grenache wine is the first Grenache on Indonesia’s local market. The wine is light-bodied and fresh.
“The result is a super fresh and juicy red wine, with a light-body and mellow tannins, perfect for casual enjoyment with friends, and ready to enjoy without further cellar aging. I’m certain the new Two Islands Grenache will take Bali by storm,” said James Kalleske.
Wine lovers can enjoy drinking it any time of day with a wide range of food pairings and match the tropical climate really well.
“These new wines are outstanding in taste and quality,” said the owner of Hatten Winery, IB. Rai Budarsa.
“To maintain our position as the market leader in Bali and throughout Indonesia, we must keep a close eye on the wine industry. We make it our priority to ensure we outsource the finest grapes from South Australia and to ensure our wine is outstanding in every way.”
Hatten Wines is Bali’s original winery, 100 percent grown and made in Bali, founded by Ida Bagus Rai Budarsa in 1994. Its award-winning range of 11 wines is produced with grapes from our North Bali vineyards that are vinified, matured, and bottled in its Sanur winery.
The result of evergreen vines that produce fruit year-round, non-vintage wines capture the character of Bali and its unique tropical terroir.
