The 2024 Protero Aromatico is a distinctive Australian white wine from the Adelaide Hills in South Australia, crafted by acclaimed winemaker Stephen Pannell. Part of the Protero range, this aromatic white blend showcases the region's cool-climate freshness and expressive fruit character. Its anticipated aromas reveal ripe pear, white peach, mandarin and fresh citrus, complemented by delicate notes of orange blossom, jasmine and subtle spice.
On the palate, it is expected to be light to medium-bodied with refreshing acidity and a smooth, textured mouthfeel. Flavours of juicy stone fruit, citrus peel and ripe apple unfold alongside hints of floral spice and fresh herbs. Its fragrant fruit character is balanced by lively acidity and gentle savoury complexity, leading to a clean, persistent finish with lingering citrus and floral notes.
