Tasting Notes
"Another new cuvée for 2022. This is a blend of Nero D’avola & Moscato Giallo. It is in the style of wine that I enjoy drinking the most, a complex yet easy drinking light(er) red with great structure. The fruit for this wine was grown by the Chalmers family on the slopes of their Mt Camel vineyard in Heathcote. These are very rocky, volcanic soils with a complex mix of Ironstone, Dolerite Green Basalt and Jasper which always imparts an abundance of minerality to the wines.
Each variety was handled separately, and fermentation took place in 100% stainless steel. Both varieties were fermented semi-carbonic. This method allows good extraction of flavour and phenolics while keeping the wine on a leaner side of things - as opposed to over extracting tannins and overtly “fruit forward” flavours. Balance has always been what I strive for most in a wine and this set of 2022’s has achieved that exceptionally well. This wine has great harmony between fruit, minerality and acidity. Bottled by gravity with 10 ppm so2 added just prior bottling." - Winemaker Note
