The grapes come from Barmera in the Riverland and Polish Hill Piver in the Clare Valley, from vines planted on sandy limestone soils.
The grapes were fermented on their skins in stainless steel for two weeks without temperature control and using only wild yeast. Following this, the wine was matured for twelve months in a 3,000-litre oak foudre before being bottled unfined and unfiltered.
A complete/ blend, combining aromatic rose petal and bitter marmalade notes with a tense acidity and a grippy, sapid finish with hints of smokey black tea

Winery | Unico Zelo is a small winery run by the youthful Brendan and Laura Carter. Still, only in their mid-twenties, this dynamic couple has been making wine under the Unico Zelo label for the last seven years, taking their inspiration from their intense passion for their native land. The wines are crafted from varieties requiring minimal intervention in the vineyard and the winery. The in-depth study of vineyard sites in South Australia has led them to focus on Italian varieties, such as Fiano and Nero d’Avola, which are perfectly suited to be dry-farmed in the arid Riverland as well as Dolcetto, Nebbiolo and Barbera, which flourish in the inland, continental climate of the Clare Valley. These delicious and unique wines combine sustainability and drinkability to great effect. |
