Description

Lean and racy, this is a bright and crunchy expression of what the sandy soils of Blewitt Springs have to offer.

It's a Grenache that showcases the pinosity that we talk about so much with this varietal, yet, see all too rarely. Fragrant, very pretty and full of floral aromatics, dusted with spice. It just dances across the palate with a weightless character.

This is the kind of wine that made us fall in love with Grenache, low alcohol, bright and exuberant, we could literally drink this all day.

"Grenache! Strong currency with this wine... Crunchy edges, lacy tannins, flint and slate rockiness shot through. Such a delight. It pleases with eases."
- Mike Bennie (The Wine Front)

94 Points - "Grenache! Strong currency with this wine. Tasted at room temp, guzzled a tumbler at cold, both a delight. It’s fresh and fragrant, tart cherry and red plum, some cranberry tang, a sniff and lick of dried herbs, and dryness with a faint minerally bent. It’s frisky yet spreads in the palate pleasingly, it feels vin de soif and fine boned grenache in the same sip. Crunchy edges, lacy tannins, flint and slate rockiness shot through. Such a delight. It pleases with eases." Mike Bennie (Wine Front)

The sixth vintage of this wine, with the bulk being from the Moritz road vineyard Dave Gartelmann looks after and a little inclusion from a second old vine sandy Blewitt Site owned by the Brini family. This is five different micro ferments - loads of whole bunch, a good deal of extended maceration. Tannin and detail the focus.

Worlds Apart

Worlds Apart is the small adventurous label of winemaker Louis Schofield and chef Hannah Jeffery.

Louis was the protege and assistant winemaker of the late Taras Ochota. From the Ochota Barrels wine studio Louis sharpened his winemaking skills and attacks the World Apart wines with a similar low-intervention but high attention to detail philosophy.

The grapes come from small local growers who farm with a sustainable ideology. These are small-batch, high-energy wines that pop out of the glass with loads of personality.
