Blood Moon Promise Schioppetino 2024 750ml

Vineyard - The Chalmers Heathcote Vineyard is an east facing sloped site comprised of the famous red Cambrian soils of the area. The lower vineyard is deep red clay-loam while the higher vineyard is complex rocky terrain of ironstone, dolerite, green basalt and jasper. Chalmers aim to follow organic farming principles where possible and are transparent in their communication when it is not.

Winemaking - Harvested 6th March. 25% of the fruit was placed in the bottom of the fermenters, the rest gently destemmed over the top. Wild yeasts were allowed to complete the fermentation, with the cap being rolled under the juice by hand once a day for 17 days, before being pressed to old neutral French oak barrels. No additions apart from sulphur, no fining or filtration.
