- The Riverland brings fun to this white wine, with many pineapples and ripe tropical fruit, but there's a salinity to it to bring outrageous refreshment. Lovely Briney, vermouth-esque aromatics, plenty of wormwoods and green olive under Riversand’s trademark whiffs of nectarine and a little grilled almond, too. The slick, oily mouthfeel is there as always, but with a bit more check and balance this year.
Being winemakers, we're two people incredibly passionate about the soil and produce we have in Australia. We intend 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. This passion 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, its 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. We hope that these Australian stories can one day be heard on a global scale.

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. |
