Sew & Sew Sashiko Fiano
This Fiano is intensely flavoured and aromatic. The nose is of home grown apricots, lifted with hints of florals, citrus and nectarine. Firm acid frames the fruit giving presence and depth. Chalky minerality is underlain with a dash of honey and spice to finish. A beautiful bright and textural wine, with great length. This Fiano matches well with Italian dishes and seafood.
Riposte The Katana Chardonnay
The grapes used to craft The Katana Chardonnay were handpicked, chilled overnight, and whole bunch pressed. The juice was rough settled, and transferred to French oak barriques for fermentation. This process led to the creation of a pale straw coloured wine with golden yellow highlights along the edges. This wonderful Chardonnay presents a supple core of citrus blossom and white stone fruit characters, enhanced by mineral notes. The juicy palate contains flavours of bright fruits and French oak supported by crisp acidity, ending in a lively and captivating climax. This alluring white wine can be enjoyed within 5 years from vintage. Drink it with potato soup, roasted vegetable pizza, and chorizo and sweet potato risotto.

Mordrelle Blanc de Blanc Adelaide Hills
Martin Mora produced his first sparkling wine in 2010 and hasn't looked back since. The wine is painstakingly made in the traditional method of Champagne. Aged on lees for up to 5 years before being disgorged using the ancient method of ‘disgorgement a la volee’ - with nerve! Roasted pine nuts, toasty citrus and brioche with a very fine bead of bubbles.
