Winemaker Tasting ~ Anna Martens of Vino di Anna + Nord-Sud Wines
We’re excited to welcome Anna Martens of Vino di Ana and Nord-Sud wines!
Join Anna for a special Taste with the Winemaker evening. Anna and her husband Eric make fabulous Italian wine at their vineyard in Sicily, under the label 'Vino di Anna'. The pair have also recently launched an organic wine label down-under. Based out of the Adelaide Hills, their label 'Nord-Sud,' is a nod to their winemaking spanning both hemispheres.
Anna and Eric are committed to making wines of place, that reflect the singular site of Etna (they're on the North-Eastern side near Solicchiata) with its volcanic soils, warm, dry climate, and varietals that are expressive and bright, that blend well together. They built a Quevry room in the early 2000's ~ an ancient Georgian winemaking style, where ceramic/clay pots are 'planted' underground and hold the wine through fermentation and aging. This is great for temperature control, and is a neutral material so it doesn't add any secondary characteristics to the wines (like oak does). It allows the wines to breathe, but keeps them fresh and really enhances the zippy minerality.
On the night, you’ll enjoy Anna's wines while having the chance to chat table-side with her about her winemaking philosophy and her exciting range. This is a wonderful opportunity to go on an around-the-world tasting journey, sampling Anna's Australian drops, as well as her Vino di Anna range from Mt Etna in Sicily.
