Fire Block 1926 Old Bush Vine GSM CONFIRM VINTAGE

Grenache Shiraz Mourvedre Clare Valley South Australia
Fire Block was excised from a large grazing property in 1923, out of concern that sparks from passing locomotives on the new Clare Valley railway could start bushfires. Situated on the western slope of the Valley, established to vines in 1926, the gnarled old veterans of Fire Block are grown to traditional dryland viticulture, with no systemic sprays or chemical fertilizers. From one of the most parched sites in Valley Clare, the vines sprout bunches of tiny shrivelled berries, yielding small volumes of intensely flavoured juices, to be vinified by the eminent O'Leary Walker winemaking team.

Fire Block
By Bill and Noel Ireland of Flinders Bay fame, Fire Block is a site that was planted predominantly to Grenache in the 1920s

Situated beside the old Watervale railway station site, Fire Block vineyard was originally planted in 1926, making the Shiraz and Grenache vines over 80 years old. The historic Fire Block vineyard was named for it's dangerous proximity to the passing railway engines of yesteryear, imperilled by the sparks of the locomotives that often started bushfires.

Fire Block

The 6 hectare property was purchased by Alistair Gillespie and Bill and Noel Ireland in 1995, and the 3 wines (Riesling, Shiraz, Grenache) are skilfully contract-made, winning trophies and gold medals at capital city wine shows. Winemakers: David O'Leary and Nick Walker
