This is a celebration of The Stubborn Few - A minority who, threw caution to the wind and forged the way for modern Australian wine making. One of them, a South Australian, defied preconceptions and invented wine cask, breaking the rules just to keep his wine fresh. A box makes perfect sense. Its airtight, economical and environmentally friendly. The Stubborn Few Rose is bright and displays fruity flavours of fresh strawberries and pink grapefruit. So kick back and raise a glass to thinking outside of the box.
Elephant in the Room Jumbo Chardonnay
Pale yellow in colour with a restrained nose of stone fruit and white peach, struck match and notes of creamy oak. The palate is bold and upfront with a burst of peach, guava and melon flavours and a rich and soft texture building to a mouth-coating and full back palate framed by subtle toasty oak. Fresh acidity gives balance before a soft dry finish.
Indgio Organic Grape Growers Collective Field Blend White
A cracking aromatic white blend that bursts with citrus, green herbs, with slight honeyed notes. The palate is bright but with time spent on lees it has built some weight and texture without compromising flavour. A vibrant fruit palate is balanced by a well judged line of acidity. This is a very satisfying and fuller flavoured fresh white wine, perfect with light seafood dishes or even roast pork belly with creamy mash.
