The estate vineyard — The Chase — sits atop the Onkaparinga Gorge, looking out over some of the oldest farms of McLaren Vale. With the Seaview winery conceived in the 1850s, and Kay Brothers Amery still in the founding family’s hands since 1890, they were drawn to the elevated sites, the cooling afternoon breezes, and the promise and potential for structured, long-lived, quintessential McLaren Vale red wines. The opportunity to continue in their legacy is a privilege.

Region

McLaren Vale

Size

750ml

Wine Style

White - juicy, refreshing, light to medium-bodied

Palate

A lifted but deep expression of McLaren Vale shiraz, tending towards blue and back fruits, Garrigue herbs, picked necessarily early to retain freshness, and layered in shyly supporting French Oak. Powerful on the palate, this wine is an interplay between the waves of intense crunchy plumlike fruit, and the tensile strength of the mineral and tannin laden structure beneath.

Vintage

2021

Food Pairing

Please take the time to splash in a decanter for as long as you dare – and serve with a slow cooked Middle Eastern lamb shoulder over a bed of cous cous.

”The colour isn't as bright as its Blewitt Springs sibling, but it revels in its deep, dark chocolate and allspice overcoat. It is from the Ministry's home block on the steep south-facing The Chase vineyard. Oozes character and drinkability. Nice touch.”
– James Halliday, Halliday Wine Companion
