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 2025 is pretty with inviting aromas of summer berries, strawberry, blue and black berries, plum, cherry and notes of sandy earth, liquourice, dark chocolate and vanilla. Juicy and supple with quandong, cedar, Santa Rosa plum, cherry skin, clove, sumac, red currant and a moreish fine blue stone finish.
BASED ON NERO D’AVOLA AND SAGRANTINO, WITH TOUCHES OF SANGIOVESE AND TEROLDEGO.
