Sémillon/Chenin Blanc blend. 11% alc/vol. No added sulphites. Still wine under crown seal.

Thousand Fires is a blast to past, and naturally they’ve thrown a spin on this classic Aussie dry white blend which one rarely sees today – think Hunter Burgundy, Swann Valley dry white, Barossa Chablis.

Sémillon farmed by David Gartelman in the McLaren Vale, whole bunch fermented. Chenin Blanc farmed by Fiona Wood, also in the McLaren Vale, on skins in barrel.

The wine? A honeyed hue, super slurpy with a chenin acid ping to finish. Lightly tropical.
