"You a greeted by a luscious array of dark cherry and red stone fruits and there is a good balance of savouriness and chocolate over the entire palate. A well balanced acid structure supports the wine while complementing the interesting and persistent sour cherry and fruitcake finish."

PILOT BLOCK RANGE

The "Chain of Ponds" story began in 1985 with the planting of a small pilot block at Gumeracha to test the suitability of several emergent grape varieties to the cool climate in the Chain of Ponds vineyards. The success of that exercise and the skill of our winemaker have captured the unique characteristics of these varietals in an innovative range of wines. The "Pilot Block" label is our recognition of that pioneering vineyard.
