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.
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.
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.
From two vineyards in Echunga and Woodside, in the Adelaide Hills, the fruit is gently pressed and slowly fermented in tank, with 10% aged in French oak for added depth and texture.
Aromas of nashi pear, lemon, lime, and green apple lead to a bright, crisp palate and a clean, refreshing finish—elegant, expressive, and irresistibly drinkable.
A lively trio of Grenache, Sangiovese, and Nero d’Avola, our Novello bursts with juicy, red-fruit aromas and a playful charm.
Silky, supple tannins make it effortlessly smooth, while its bright, refreshing style shines when served slightly chilled. Perfect for enjoying now, it’s the ideal wine for casual sipping, sunny afternoons, or sharing with friends.
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 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.
