Mother Block Skin Contact White 2023, Victoria, Australia
Here is a clean and approachable introduction to the world of skin contact whites for you. The fermenting juice remained unseparated from the grape skins and seeds for 7 to 18 days. So this isn’t a full-blown orange wine, but did pick up some additional texture and phenolic grip. Gulpable and lively, enjoy floral aromas and a mellow mid palate of melon, apple, and herbs.
Chaumurs family are the grape farmers. The 35-hectare ‘Mother Block’ is at the heart of all that they do.

Their white is an unusual blend of Italian varietals: 46% Vermentino, 35% Guano, 7% Ansonica, 6% Pecorino, 5% Moscato Giallo, and 2% Greco!
