2022 Sea Foam Pet Nat, Riverland, South Australia
A revelatory expression of Vermentino and Fiano from ancient sandy limestone soils, capturing the pure essence of Australian spring in a bottle. This sophomore vintage switches to Riverland Vermentino, elevating the wine to new heights.
The palate dances with nashi pear and green apple freshness, while white nectarine and frangipani add exotic complexity. A subtle grassy note and natural salinity create an irresistibly refreshing finish.
Sustainably grown on Ngawait Country. 12% ABV. Limited production.
2022 Truffle Hound Red Blend, Clare Valley & Adelaide Hills, South Australia
A playful yet serious interpretation of Nebbiolo, Barbera, Sangiovese, and a dash of Merlot (mostly Italian varieties), grown on shale and blue slate soils. This early-release style prioritizes aromatic lift and savory refreshment.
The palate favors meaty complexity over fruit-forward simplicity, showing smoky notes, amaro-like spice, and cardamom. Bright acidity drives a juicy yet sophisticated finish.
Grown on Ngadjuri & Peramangk Country. 11.5% ABV. The ultimate pizza wine. 94 points from Wine Enthusiast.
2023 Fresh A.F. Nero d'Avola, Riverland, South Australia
A groundbreaking collaboration between desert-grown Nero d'Avola and a dash of ancient-vine Zibibbo, proving the Riverland's potential for innovative, sustainable winemaking.
This zero-addition wine (except minimal SO2 at bottling) showcases the remarkable water efficiency of Nero d'Avola. Co-fermentation with Zibibbo lifts the aromatics to create a supremely smashable red that defies convention.
Crafted on Ngawait Country from ancient sandy limestone soils. 12% ABV. 93 points, Wine Enthusiast.
2023 Jade & Jasper Fiano, Riverland, South Australia
The wine that started it all - a desert-grown Fiano that proves sustainability and quality can coexist beautifully. From the ancient sandy limestone soils of Waikerie.
Elegant jasmine and white peach blossoms lead to a palate that balances racy acidity with Fiano's distinctive texture. A versatile white that elevates any table.

2022 Esoterico Orange Wine, Riverland & Clare Valley, South Australia
A bohemian blend of Gewürztraminer and Zibibbo that's become a cult classic. This amber wine embraces creative freedom over conventional precision.
Unfined and unfiltered, gravity does the work here. The result delivers mouthwatering acidity and gentle tannins, creating pure drinkability without pretense. A perfect introduction to the amber wine world.
Sustainably grown on Ngawait & Ngaduri Country. 10.5% ABV. Natural sediment present.
NV Yuzu Vermut, Adelaide Hills, South Australia
An innovative fusion of Adelaide Hills Merlot, exotic Yuzu citrus, and native Australian botanicals. This creative vermouth represents pure experimentation and joy.
The collaboration with Økar Island Bitter and Mountain Yuzu creates a unique expression that works equally well solo or in cocktails. Crafted from alluvial quartz-shot clay soils.
Adelaide Hills grown. 16% ABV. Limited production.
