Mallee Gambit
2020 Nero d'Avola - Polish Hill River, Clare Valley.
Luscious sour cherry trademark is here in full force, but a rugged herbaceous edge makes this alluring red wine quintessentially Clare. Best enjoyed with food cooked over coals. The vines on Polish Hill River are surrounded by enormous Eucalyptus. What makes that so special is that unmistakably Australian feeling of being in that Mallee scrub, with a big bonfire and that unmistakable Eucalypt scent in the air - it runs deep in this wine.

On the site where our exploration into Clare Valley Nero grows in Polish Hill River, the vines are surrounded by enormous Eucalyptus Trees and some of the oldest vines planted in this country! What makes that so special is that feeling of being in that Mallee scrub, with a big bonfire and that unmistakable Eucalypt scent in the air - it runs deep in this wine. While these vines were only grafted to Nero in 2016, its future looks incredibly bright. That luscious sour cherry trademark is here in full force, but a rugged herbaceous edge makes this alluring wine quintessentially Clare. You'll be asking for another glass in no time. Looking for a wine for your next camping trip? - this is it.
Best enjoyed with food cooked over coals.
