It is named for Topher and Bernadette’s second son. Saint Edward was an 11 century king of England and is the patron saint of kings and marriages. In 2023, St Edward: Montepulciano was made by blending barrel aged amber mixed culture fermentation ale with 225kg of Montepulciano from Grove Estate in Young, NSW. After a four month maceration and refermentation of fruit and beer, it was bottled and allowed to naturally carbonate and mature before release. Label art by Bernadette. Nemesia's tasting notes: On the nose, an array of dark fruits and spices - think black cherry, stewed plum, nutmeg & clove. You'd be forgiven for thinking you've been poured a glass of some agrarian Italian table red wine. On the palate, a pleasant fruit weight met with sweet malt gives a round mouthfeel. There's some earthiness and subtle oak influence woven in there too. Super delicate tannins and a cleansing touch of acid to finish. 120 bottles available online.
