    • Description

      The Chalmers Rosato is made from mostly Aglianico with a splash of Nero d’Avola and Sagrantino. All three varieties are growing on the prized top block at the Heathcote vineyard which is a complex rocky site with green basalt, ironstone, dolerite and fractured limestone. The block gives a distinct elegance and prettiness to the red varieties grown there, even though these varieties are usually more muscular. The Aglianico portion is fermented in old barriques and the other two are co-fermented in stainless steel to retain freshness. The end result is a serious yet slurpable pale, dry and textural rose.

    Chalmers

    The Chalmers family’s commitment to innovation and excellence has made them a pivotal force in the Australian wine scene for several decades. Through its nursery, vineyards, and wine brands, Chalmers encourages viticultural diversity and smart site-to-variety matching as it works to sustainably grow and authentically craft regional Australian wines. Chalmers wines are the result of years of experimentation and refinement, from the soil to the bottle – Australian wines that pay homage to their continental heritage. Although the Chalmers viticultural story dates back to the late 1970s with grapegrowing and vine propagation, the winery has been producing its own wine only since the early 2000s. Beginning with the Murray Darling Collection in 2003, Chalmers experimented with many French, Spanish, and Italian varieties to find grapes that could produce high-quality fruit in warmer, drier growing conditions. After several vintages, Chalmers sharpened its focus on Italian varieties, of which they had more than 30 in the vineyard, and created Chalmers wines. The Chalmers range focuses on individual varietal wines, each with its own unique personality. The wine company also makes a suite of fun, everyday-drinking wines under its Montevecchio label as well as single-vineyard Heathcote wines Le Sorelle Shiraz and Arturo Malbec.
