As we head to the vineyards with our shiny new buckets to put the juicy berries in, we dream of the perfect blackberry pie that will be made from the fruit that we pick. Wafts of fresh baked pastry; macerated blackberry flavours and the texture of clotted cream… now that’s our Blackberry Patch!
The fruit for Blackberry Patch comes from one block in the heart of the Langhorne Creek and another in the Blewitt Springs sub-region of the McLaren Vale. Primary fermentation takes place in a combination of stainless steel vats and 5 tonne open fermenters after which the wine is assembled into tank and allowed to complete a natural malolactic fermentation before being pressed off. It is then transferred to new & well-seasoned hogsheads and aged for up to 12 months prior to bottling with minimal filtration. This results in a wine with purity of fruit that is regal and eminently satisfying to allow for regular indulgence.
Exuberant cassis, dark plum and obviously blackberry fruits aligning with enveloping,refined-yet-generous cigar box tannins.
