    About The Wine

    The blend is comprised of Nero, Sangiovese, Lambrusco (not as you know it) and a splash of Syrah. All of these varieties were fermented and aged separately in stainless steel and Amphora. And although on paper it reads like a big red blend, it is very far from that. It is light, very delicate with an extremely pretty structure. It drinks like a premium Jura Pinot noir more than anything else. Translucent pale red in colour with energy and elegance to burn.

    All of the fruit was grown in an ultra-rocky mix of Ironstone, Dolerite, Green Basalt & Jasper on the slopes of Mt Camel and was monitored very closely once we got close to picking. I had making this wine in this style in mind so the timing of picking was crucial. Perfectly balanced acid to flavour ripeness has equated to a very elegant and poised wine.

    About Momento Mori

    When it comes to cult winemakers there are only a few in Australia that have the same following as Momento Mori. With wines that are considered just as alive as the land they farm its not hard to see why.

    Dane and Hannah begun Momento Mori with the ideology of creating wines that first and foremost respect the living and are wines that they like to drink and share. They farm two sites one on the steep hills of Strezelecki Ranges in Gippsland and another beneath the Black Snake Ranges in the Tonimbuk valley.

    Farmed strictly with organic principles and a appreciation of the living and dynamic environment around them. Momento Mori wines are all very small batch with no use of new oak or mechanical pumps used on the wines, no fining or filtering and no additions, including no S02 at any stage of wine making.
