Winemaker. Adam Marks has made his mark (pardon the pun!) as one of our most progressive vintners at Victoria ‘s Bress wines. His European approach and belief is that one region cannot produce a range of wines of equally high quality instead he matches varieties to regions. About the name. Marks says Whilst living and winemaking in the Yarra Valley. I discovered the joys of breeding and showing chickens. This passion led me to visit France in 1996 to witness first hand their traditional methods of breeding chickens and I dedicate our wines to the famous chickens of France and what they represent “ artisan production using traditional. age old methods.
We like his affinity with Rudolph Steiner ‘s bio dynamics and natural approach in the vineyard (no chemical fertilisers) and winery (natural yeasts and no fining or filtering reds and minimal sulphur additions).
This regional blend from Bendigo and Heathcote is tightly packed full of black fruit. spice. cloves. and plum … Elegant and savoury very reminiscent of the Northern Rhone. Beautifully integrated oak and refined crunchy acidity gives the wine lovely structure. power. balance and a savoury richness.
Drinking beautifully now however will reward careful cellaring for up to 6 years.
