Wine

Keith Tulloch Field of Mars Block 2A Semillon is sourced from Block 2A, a tiny 0.25 hectare patch of vines of the estate's Hermitage Road vineyard in the Hunter Valley.

This site was planted in 1968 on deep drifts of fine white river sand. Surrounded on three sides by meandering dry stream beds, this little island of vines is known for producing a pure expression of Semillon.

In ancient Rome, the Field of Mars was a parade grounds for victory celebrations. Keith Tulloch's Fields of Mars range is reserved for the winery's top echelon wines, celebrating the best selections from their Hermitage Road property.

The fruit is hand harvested and the wine is handcrafted in small batches. An extremely limited release, each bottle is individually numbered.

Clear straw green, Keith Tulloch Field of Mars Block 2A Semillon has long, pure citrus flavours with crunchy mineral acidity and chalky texture. Cellaring potential is 15 years.
