MMAD Chenin Blanc 2025
Wines taste best when shared with friends!
Blewitt Springs based MMAD is quite the all-star act. The mature vineyard site was acquired in 2021 by Michael Hill Smith MW, Martin Shaw, Adam Wadewitz, and David LeMire MW (the initials forming MMAD). The 16.5 hectare site features 87yr old Grenache vines, 85yr Shiraz and super old, in relative terms, Chenin at 62yrs of age.
"The evolution of this wine never ceases to interest and amaze me, there is incremental texture and chiselled edges to the wine wrapped in this slinky, saline and mineral driven package... Another exceptional release and a benchmark of what Chenin Blanc can do in this country." 97pts | Shanteh Wale | The Wine Pilot
"MMAD Vineyard Blewitt Springs Chenin Blanc has had a sensational start to its career. All of the 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 vintages have scored 94 points or higher on The Winefront site, and this 2025 release is a continuation of that impeccably high standard. There’s a gravitas to this release. It remains frisky and juicy and fruity, but it has a genuine flare to the finish, it’s bolstered by perfectly integrated woodsmoke and cedarwood characters, it has a saline edge, and the texture sits at a perfect just-satiny point. There’s a juiciness to this wine, as mentioned, but it feels dry through the back half, almost pebbly, with an itch of grip there too. It’s good to go now but it will mature well. It’s nuanced now but time will bring exaggeration in the most entertaining of ways." 95pts | Campbell Mattinson
