Description
WINEMAKER: Sam Kaplan
REGION: Heathcote, VIC.
VARIETY: Sangiovese
VITICULTURE: Minimal Intervention
Someday Never Comes is 100% Sangiovese from the Chalmers vineyard on the rocky slopes of Mt Camel. The soils are ancient Cambrian volcanic and are comprised of dolerite, green jasper and ironstone to name a few.
I first used this fruit in 2022 and made one small tank of it. That tank ended up in the 2022 True Love Waits. I so was enamoured with that single tank of Sangiovese then that I knew I had to make a single varietal wine from it sometime in the future.
The soils here work so well for these red Italian varietals, The wines always have such a volcanic, mineral drive with super fine tannins which create incredible structure.
This wine is savoury and complex . It’s got fruit upfront but then the acid line and tannin profile really shine through. It’s polished but rustic at the same time. It was intentionally a low extraction ferment to keep it on the lighter, more playful side. Elevage in stainless steel to keep things fresh !

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.
