Description
Aptly named ‘Mother Block’, these wines come from the red sand and limestone soils of the Chalmers Vineyard in Merbein, the heart and hub of everything we do. As well as it being the location of our family home and business, this unique and diverse vineyard is the adopted home to each variety that we’ve imported to Australia over the last 20+ years. It is also the source block for supplying millions of vines planted across Australia through our vine nursery, hence the name Mother Block. All wines are sustainably farmed, estate grown, ethically tended, co-fermented and vegan friendly with the use of lightweight glass and labels made from 100% recycled materials.
The 2023 has super pretty lifted aromas of wild strawberry, plum, dark cherry, forest floor, shitake mushroom and orange zest. Bright and juicy, with crunchy cranberries, cherry skin, star anise, tart plums and schezwan pepper, moreish fine sandy tannins keeping it light on its feet.
BASED ON NERO D’AVOLA, SAGRANTINO AND TEROLDEGO WITH A TOUCH OF SANGIOVESE
