Grenache is the star of this wine and is picked in multiple parcels across McLaren Vale and Langhorne Creek, as well as a small parcel of Cinsault
Made in a blush and bright Rosé style, fermented slowly before 6 months of maturation on fluffy lees in seasoned French oak. Delicated florals, fresh red fruits and spice on the nose, with a satisfying texture and a crisp, dry finish.
Food Pairing
Any Thai or Indian dishes, or pair with warm apple pie for dessert.

Handpicked fruit from our vineyard nestled above the Clarendon township, at one of the highest sites in the McLaren Vale wine region. We have been farming this site without any herbicide, insecticide or systemic chemicals and use Indian Runner Ducks to forage undervine, and sheep and alpacas grazing over winter. Gentle handling and winemaking has been utilized every step of the way.
A magic carpet of three different Pinot Noir clones, 777, MV6 and Pommard. Hand-picked parcels from Kuitpo, with another later pick from Forreston. 30% whole bunches in the ferments, before basket pressing and maturation for 6 months in seasoned French oak. A bright, floral and layered style.
An early hand picked parcel from the iconic Brini vineyard in Blewitt Springs. 100% Grenache, grown on ancient sandy soils. Partly fermented in locally made terracotta pots, gently hand plunged with extended time on skins. Basket pressed and matured for 6 months in seasoned French oak. A fresh, bright style.

We love how well suited Fiano is to the Australian climate, with it’s thick skin and ability to ripen on the vine without losing acidity under the summer sun. It’s also very versatile in the winery, and our aim is to make a style that is fresh, zippy and attractively aromatic. We work with a vineyard at Kersbrook, in the warmer northern Adelaide Hills, which we think is a perfect site growing for Italian grape varieties.
Sourced from Coonawarra, in a fantastic growing season for Cabernet. This wine has a velvety mouthfeel, with a classic pastille core, blackcurrant and forest fruits. Enjoy now or cellar for 5-10 years, with enough tannin weight that will develop gracefully.
