WINEMAKER NOTES
“Fruit is harvested late in the season when its flavours are fully developed and the naturally high acidity levels reduced. Fruit is then crushed and held on skins for six hours to build body and generosity of flavour before being drained to settle and rack. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel to help preserve fruit flavours. A maturation period of six months follows to help with flavour development before bottling in spring.” Warren Proft, winemaker

About La Zona Wines

Italian for “the area”, the popular La Zona range is as diverse as the King Valley’s renowned altitudes and celebrates not only Chrismont’s Italian heritage, but its vineyard’s abilities and affections with Mediterranean varietals.

Grapegrowers since 1980 and winemakers from 1996, Chrismont is inspired by Mediterranean and classic European varieties, which in equal parts reflects its heritage and a belief that the rich, undulating landscapes and cool climate of King Valley is ideal for producing varietal distinctive, quality wines.

The Chrismont ‘red cap’ range celebrates classic European varietal wines made from some of the King Valley’s oldest vineyards, capturing the region’s unique terrain in fresh, contemporary styles, and includes one of Australia’s great quality Rieslings.
