WCIPA

Traditionally known for their hoppy characteristics, West Coast IPA (WCIPA) are big, bold and have
really cemented their place in the craft beer scene.

Unlike the sister style NEIPA, which are known for their citrus and tropical notes, the characteristics
of a WCIPA are a prominent hop aroma, high bitterness, and citrus and piney notes and flavors. The colour normally still retains the pale colour of an IPA.

The preferred hops (either whole-cone or pellet) used for this brew are Centennial, Cascade, Mosaic,
Amarillo, Chinook, Simcoe, Strata and even Citra. Others have the possibility of adding spicy and
wooded notes that clash with the resin and piney aromas desired.

During the brewing process the fermentation often contains higher amounts of hops in the boil
kettle (leading to the higher bitterness and mid-palate hop flavour. Another way to attain the
distinctive hop notes for the style is by the brewer adding hops to the beer post fermentation.
Whilst this does impart a little more bitterness, it mainly impacts the hop characteristics in the brew.

NOMADS GARDEN

This vintage for was especially hard as it was a constant battle fighting disease throughout the growing season, with the wet and humid start to the season. They were fortunate enough to steer clear and this resulted in fruit that had a fresh and vibrant acidity.

The grapes were grown in their Bungamero Vineyard in the Alpine Valley. Harvest occurred in March and were handpicked and sorted at the vineyard. The grapes were then chilled overnight at the winery before being pressed into stainless steel. The cuvee from the first press was kept separate from the rest of the press. This juice was chilled and then racked clean whist the pressing were put to seasoned oak for fermentation and maturation on gross lees to reduce phenolics. Wild yeast was used to assist in elements of the fermentation. After fermentation the wine was removed from the less and bottling then occurred in October.

PRE-FERMENTATION MACERATION

Also known as cold soaking, Pre-Fermentation Maceration is a process used for gentling, extracting colour, aroma and softening tannins in a wine.

Depending on the desired style the winemaker wants to make as well as varietals used, the grapes are soaked at lower temperatures prior to fermentation beginning for anywhere from a few hours to several days.This technique is commonly used for red wines, especially those made from thick-skinned grape varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah.

So what determines the use of this technique? Certain grape varieties have more tannins and color compounds in their skins, making them well-suited. Second, the winemaker’s desired wine style plays a part with depth of color, flavour intensity and/or tannin structure; pre-fermentation maceration can help achieve them. Lastly, the quality of the grapes also matters as grapes with good phenolic maturity, (have developed tannins and flavors), are more suitable for pre-fermentation maceration.
