Koerner Mammolo Sciacarello 2023, by Damon & Jono Koerner in the Vivian Vineyard, Clare Valley (black & red clay over limestone), is a singular delight. This 100% Sciacarello shows light-garnet hues and bursts with scented red cherry, pomegranate and rose-hip tea, lifted by cooling spice and herbal notes. The palate is finely structured yet ethereal – ultra-fine tannins, vivid acidity and a mineral edge with crushed rock and saline undertones. Scored 94 points by The Wine Front, it offers superb freshness and finesse. Best served slightly chilled, this wine rewards curiosity and gentle cellaring.
