Yangarra Ovitelli Grenache Blanc 2022

Halliday Review 96 Pts

"A blend of 58/24/8/5/5% grenache blanc/roussanne/ grenache gris/bourboulenc/clairette. Some grenache and clairette on skins in concrete eggs for 120 days, the remainder whole-bunch pressed to egg; 59% skin contact in the final blend. Organic/biodynamic. The skin contact provides meaningful detail to this, but in a quiet way, gently tugging the palate with a pumice-like texture, shaving off overt fruitfulness and layering in savoury flavour. Dried pear, poached apple, quince, ground ginger, beeswax, lemon barely water and … more

Yangarra Ovitelli Grenache 2022

Halliday Review 96 Pts

"From 1946-planted vines in Block 30, adjacent to the High Sands Block; destemmed, crushed and fermented in 675L ceramic eggs; pressed after about 150 days then returned to the eggs for a total of 14 months' maturation. Taut and sinewy, both a function of making and the year that was, this is a coiled spring of dried flowers, cranberry, raspberry leaf tea, cherry, pomegranate and dusty white pepper spicing. The pedigree of place, venerable vines, impeccable … more

Yangarra Kings Wood Shiraz 2022

Halliday Review 95 Pts

"From Block 12 on a southeast-facing sandy ironstone outcrop; 15% whole bunches, the rest crushed; matured in French and Austrian foudre for 18 months. A very Rhône-like release this, with peppery spicing, blackberry pastille, moody blue florals, lavender, blueberry, cocoa powder and freshly ground star anise. The elegance here is admirable, with a tannin drive from front to back, and no sweet spot. A very fine release."

Wynns John Riddoch Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

"DW U15 Polish Hill River. One of the best Leonays for some years. Not every maker got the acidity right in this vintage, wonderful quality awaiting those who did, as you'll find here. Its lime leaf aromas and tinkling acidity are the marks of a wine with a great future." 95 Points - James Halliday

Werkstatt Riesling Sekt 2023

Winemakers Notes "2023 was a wet and cold vintage. The cooler season provided the perfect opportunity to make a sparkling Riesling in the Traditional Method/Sekt style. Grapes picked on 5th April. Partially whole bunch pressed, light pressing, all free run juice. Fermented in old French puncheons and kept on gross lees for 3 months. 13 months on lees in bottle adds subtle complexity, the dosage of 4 g/L balances perfectly with the higher acid from the cooler season. Savoury, brioche … more

Unico Zelo Truffle Hound Barbera Nebbiolo 2024

Don't let the name fool you - no truffles were harmed in the making of this wine. Though with a glass of this vibrant, moreish drop, you might find some truffle fries is just what you need. A very Vino Italiano blend of Barbera, Sangiovese, Nebbiolo and Merlot, this red is fresh and a little spicy, with enough juicy fruit to serve all through the summer.

Unico Zelo Jade + Jasper Fiano 2023

Winery Notes "The Alpha & Omega of Unico Zelo. When discovering the ability of Fiano's incredible to be dry grown in the Riverland, a bonafide desert, it set us on the path that we were set to follow. It also certainly helps that the wine produced from it is nothing short of a delight. Elegant whiffs of jasmine and white peach blossoms, racy and crackling acidity with distinct Fiano texture. One of those white wines that can suit almost any … more

Unico Zelo Esoterico Orange Zibibbo 2022

"This has become one of our most cult-followed wines since we began. We make no additions of any kind - save for sulphur when we bottle the wine. There is no fining or filtration involved, with the wine allowed to clarify by gravity alone - resulting in a slight haze and sediment. This is one of the most enjoyable wines to craft, as there was no preconceived idea of what it must taste like - the chief driver is pure … more

Unico Pomelo Vermouth 750ml

We take our limoncello (not lemoncello) a tad seriously. Made from a safely guarded recipe - two different types of lemons from south australia's oldest citrus plantation in lennane orchards, montacute valley, adelaide hills. This citrus orchard is believed to be planted 150 years ago.The lemons are what one might call "Ugly". Yes, they are different sizes and kind of weird-looking. Unfortunately, that meant that supermarkets did not want to buy them. To help preserve this historic orchard, applewood distillery … more
