The wine region of Mount Gambier
Southernmost region of the Limestone Coast (cool maritime, nearby Southern Ocean, fertile volcanic loams, sands over limestone, first plantings 1982): Pinot Noir is the signature red — silky and elegant, ruby robe, perfumed aromas of cherry and spice, finesse preserved by ocean coolness. Sauvignon Blanc is the signature white (38% of vineyard), precise and vivid. Chardonnay with citrus and stone fruit, Pinot Gris as complement.
The wine region of Australie du Sud
Cradle of the great Australian Shiraz: powerful, sun-drenched reds with notes of blackberry, candied plum, pepper, chocolate and eucalyptus, ample tannins and vibrant fruit (Barossa, McLaren Vale). Firm, minty Cabernet Sauvignon on Coonawarra (terra rossa). Dry, lemony Riesling from Clare and Eden Valley, straight and taut. Fresh Sauvignon and Chardonnay from Adelaide Hills.
The word of the wine: Extraction
All the methods (pumping over, punching down) that allow the colour and tannins to be extracted from the grape skin during maceration, before fermentation begins. It is also possible to macerate after fermentation, but gently, so as not to extract the tannins from the seeds, which are greener. Because of its solvent power, alcohol favours extraction.
