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.
Ripe peach, grapefruit, textural and layered.
Deep, inky colour with very pretty aromatics that leap out of the glass. Bouncy blackberry fruit like Ribena and chocolate cake. Lovely balanced acidity/tannin structure and a rich, plush texture.
A brand new release from the stunning 2024 vintage in McLaren Vale. Whole berries were retained after destemming the bunches (no crushing took place), before a cool, open top fermentation. Fermented slowly for 25 days on skins and then basket pressed to seasoned French Hogsheads for 8 months of maturation. Vegan friendly.
Grown at a single vineyard in Woodside, Adelaide Hills, picked in the cool of night, gently pressed, and cool-fermented in tank. A dry style with just 5 g/L of residual sugar.
Made for sunny afternoons, with a crisp, refreshing palate and a lingering bead of bubbles. Bright notes of lemon, summer fruits, and florals make it perfect with a wide range of foods—or simply enjoyed on its own, just because!
A blend of Cabernet Franc (51%), Malbec (30%), and Cabernet Sauvignon (19%) from three distinct vineyards. Cabernet Franc from Blewitt Springs adds aromatic lift, Malbec from McLaren Flat brings fresh dark fruit, and Cabernet Sauvignon from Clarendon provides structure and depth.
Gently fermented with whole berries and extended skin contact, the parcels were basket pressed and matured in French oak for 12 months. A poised medium-bodied red offering blackcurrant, plum, subtle herbs, fine tannins, and a savoury, lingering finish.
A magic carpet of three different Pinot Noir clones from a single vineyard in Ironbank. Hand picked with 30% whole bunches, before gently basket pressing and maturation for 6 months in seasoned French oak. A bright, floral and layered style.
One of Sicily’s great wine treasures, Nero d’Avola is known for its dark berry flavours and medium-bodied style. Ours comes from a single vineyard in McLaren Flat, hand-picked at peak ripeness, perfectly suited to the region’s warm climate.
Aromas of ripe blackberry, plum, and a hint of spice lead to a smooth, silky palate with rounded tannins and a lingering, fruit-driven finish.
