Full of juicy strawberries, zippy acidity and a bundle of nectarines, raspberries, red apples and pomegranate exploding in the mouth. Joining the fresh fruits are some rhubarb pastries and red liquorice, which combine to deliver a really fun sparkling wine with enough depth to match with a weightier dish of seared, juicy beef, and roasted peppers, freshly cut herbs and creamy polenta. If you’re looking for an interesting, complex, sparkling for the cooler months, the Col Fondo will easily do the trick.

Notes
The Chalmers family imported the first Aglianico vines into Australia back in 2001, and produced a first Col Fondo wine in 2019. This 2021 Chalmers Aglianico Col Fondo is 100% Aglianico grown on the Chalmers vineyard’s soils of basalt, shale, sandstone, dolerite, quartz and limestone at an elevation of 210-225m.
The grapes were handpicked on 9th and 10th March 2021. The must was fermented with indigenous yeast in old barriques. The wine was tiraged after five months and is not disgorged, meaning that the lees remain in the bottle. This vegan-friendly was made with no additions apart from a pinch of sulphur.
The wine is bright, creamy and chalky with a delicate fizz and notes of pollen, cassia and ruby grapefruit.
