“Nero d’Avola – Barmera, Riverland. The freshest, zippiest style of Red. The insane water-efficiency of this variety coupled with no additions in the vineyard or winery (save for a small component of SO2 at bottling) displays the potential for this variety to craft succulent, juicy, aromatic and supremely refreshing wine. A touch of ancient vine Zibibbo lifts the aroma into supreme smashability.
If anywhere in the world could make the freshest, zippiest style of Red – you’d expect it to be in the middle of the desert. Hailing from some of the most ancient soils on earth – The Riverland, is a complete underdog region that epitomises what it is to craft fine wine on the edge. Rich red earth, sandy soils covering limestone. Challenging, avant-garde – and one of the most exciting wines we’ve crafted to date. We’re intensely passionate about Nero d’Avola and it’s clear potential in the warm, sun-drenched spots of Australia. Fresh. A.F. You’ve been warned.” – Producer’s note
