Tasting Notes
Blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir. 4 year old solera barrel of Flo’s Fizz Pet Nat. Each year some is taken to make this wine then replaced with the new season blend to age a further year.. This wine has a tensile complex nature. On the surface it’s a fun pink wine. A little time in the glass reveals a very layered and complex drop. Honey, walnuts and porridge. Poached rhubarb acidity. - Winemaker Note
James Madden is a friend and a hell of a personality. His wines aren't much different really... The vineyards are all farmed organically in McLaren Vale and the Adelaide Hills (some by James himself) and a bare minimum is done to interfere with the wines natural course. No additions, no subtractions, just fermented juice. James comes from a hospitality background where he worked all over the country running bars and restaurants until he caught the winemaking bug like so many of us. He is pretty much self taught but does pull knowledge from his handful of vintages with James Erskine (Jauma), Alex Schulkin (The Other Right) and Anton von Klopper (Lucy Margaux). I have lots of love for these wines and I can't wait to see the journey James takes us on. - Chris L
