Tasting Notes
Semillon from a special site on the Limestone Coast that Mitch from Eleven Sons has wanted fruit from for a while. This is riper and fleshier than your typical Hunter Valley Semillon which I am very happy about. It's still got all that fresh lime and citrus running through it but there's a bit more texture and interest which keeps me coming back for more. - Pete L
Eleven Sons is a small-batch, artisanal wine project led by winemaker Mitch Sokolin. Known for a "hands-off" and explorative approach, the label focuses on producing tiny quantities of site-specific wines—sometimes as few as 500 bottles per cuvée—sourced from unique and often overlooked vineyard plots across the globe.
Sokolin employs low-intervention techniques, frequently utilizing whole-cluster fermentation and neutral vessels like stainless steel or old oak to ensure the fruit and terroir remain the focus. Mitch always says you can’t beat good DNA. So he travels far and wide to find vineyards with great geology and climate to make his wines.
He is nomadic in spirit and as a result so are his wines. His Australian range is sourced from specific sites on the Limestone Coast, but he also travels to Spain to source from high-altitude, rocky outcrops in Salamanca (specifically the Sierra de Francia).
The wines typically exhibit a savory, mineral-driven profile with fine-grained tannins and bright acidity. They are often compared to the elegant, "rocky" reds of the Canary Islands or Northern Italy's Valtellina, offering a sophisticated alternative to more traditional, fruit-forward styles.
