Miles From Nowhere is all about a passion for winemaking. This passion drove us to want to make our own wine. So one by one we gathered precious little pockets of exceptional land and vineyards, scattered across the Margaret River region of Western Australia and based our winemaking on a property in Cowaramup.
Miles From Nowhere vineyards display excellent and unique fruit. From old vines to steep slopes, loamy soils to deep gravel, open fields nestled among the gum trees, our vineyards are as diverse as they are isolated from each other – each creating the perfect drop. The greatest discoveries are often made by getting off the beaten track and being happy to just ‘get lost’ for a while. We wouldn’t have it any other way and are very proud to be just what we are; Miles From Nowhere.

Winemaking notes: Fruit was harvested in the cool of early morning. Individual batches were pressed lightly to void extracting any harsh phenolics. Following settling, a portion of the juice was racked to French oak for fermentation. Yeast strains isolated from Burgundy and Portugal were used to enhance fruit aromas, wine structure, mouth feel and complexity. Post fermentation the wine received regular stirring or battonage to produce a wine that is creamy and viscous in texture. Various wine batches were blended in tank and given a light fining prior to bottling.
Oak: 6 months
