Unico Zelo "Fresh A.F." Nero d'Avola, Riverland, Australia 2023
Unico Zelo calls this one of the most exciting wines they've made, and it's easy to see why. Nero d'Avola thrives in Australia's sun with remarkably little water, and with nothing added in the vineyard or cellar beyond a touch of SO2 at bottling, it turns out a juicy, aromatic, supremely refreshing red. Fresh. A.F. You've been warned.
Tasting Notes
"Expect succulent, juicy red fruit and a perfumed lift from a splash of old-vine Zibibbo. Light on its feet and seriously smashable with a chill." — Harvest Wine Shop

About Unico Zelo
Owners: Brendan & Laura Carter
Being winemakers, we're two people incredibly passionate about the soil and produce we have in Australia. It's our intent to showcase products to the rest of the world that embrace Australian native ingredients and pay homage to the indigenous custodianship who maintained the land for thousands of years.
It's this passion that has driven us to start two wine labels, one that protects our farmers and another that protects our future. We've since taken these concepts and with our distillery, applewood - catapulted it into the horticultural realm - studying indigenous produce, it's beneficial effects on our land and the stories it can tell through incredible colours, flavours, and textures.
We seek Australian identity in the products we craft and the services we offer. We seek ways to communicate this with an entirely new demographic.
Our hope is that these Australian stories can one-day be heard on a global scale.
