Robert Parker/Wine Advocate – "The 2022 Mother Block Skin Contact White is a blend of Vermentino (41%), Ansonica (19%), Pecorino (19%), Falanghina (14%), Moscato Giallo (5%) Grechetto (1%) and Nosiola (1%). The fruit was co-fermented and is a golden hazy yellow in the glass. On the nose, there are musk sticks, blood orange, citrus oil, beeswax, creamed honey, cold toast and a host of other textural, yellow fruit characters, loquat among them. The palate follows suit and rolls over the tongue in the pillowy way that skin contact white wine can do. The texture from the skin tempers the purity of acidity, but the length of flavor through the finish remains untouched. Very good, lovely wine. Kudos for procuring the out-of-the-way varieties." - Erin Larkin (Robert Parker Wine Advocate)
About This Wine
Winemaker's Notes:
Our ‘Mother Block' site at Chalmers Merbein Vineyard is at the heart of all that we do. As well as it being the location of our family home and business, this unique and diverse vineyard houses plantings of each variety that we've imported to Australia over the last 20 years. It is therefore, also the source block for supplying millions of vines planted across Australia through our vine nursery.
