The father of the southern industry, Claudio Alcorso, famously claimed that had the French settled Hobart instead of the English, all of the valley’s hills would today be covered in vines. The soils run from calcerous clay over river gravels uphill at Granton to black cracking clay on limestone to deep terra rossa soils on the upper slopes where the Italian Nebbiolo grape has recently been planted. Two of Australia’s most highly acclaimed Chardonnays source a major portion of their fruit from here, as do the producers of one of the country’s leading sparkling wines.”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cardwell Cellars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53319424049466,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/6022\/0218\/files\/Meadowbank_Gamay_Cardwell_Cellars.png?v=1776250501","url":"https:\/\/cardwellcellars.com\/products\/meadowbank-gamay-2024","provider":"Cardwell Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
