2023 Jauma Mimsy Chenin Spritz
Description
WINEMAKER: James Erskine
REGION: McLaren Vale, SA
VARIETY: Chenin Blanc
VITICULTURE: Organic
In a previous life, this wine was known as Fujisan. James renamed the wine in honour of his long-term friend and eternal provider of “a couch to sleep on” in Melbourne. Fruit for this sparkling is sourced from Lulu Lutz’s 16-year-old vines in her Blewitt Springs vineyard. It’s a deep and sandy site overlying schist and clay and facing east. The fruit was directly pressed to tank, bottled with 10g/L residual sugar and disgorged a few months later.
James Erskine is an honours graduate in soil chemistry and celebrated sommelier. A leading light in organic farming and zero-adds wine. He also owns a certified organic cherry farm. How good.

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Newtown – We created SPÖN as a cozy neighbourhood bottle shop and wine bar that feels relaxed, welcoming and distinctly its own. Creative, a little gritty, a little playful and always full of something new & unexpected — just like Newtown.
A bottle shop with a bar problem.
SPÖN - a discovery-led hybrid bottle-shop/Wine bar experience. Browse the shelves, grab a bottle and drink it at the bar — or pull up a stool and explore a daily rotating board of over 15+ distinct wines being poured by the glass. SPÖN is built around drinking what interests you.
Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
