From: Australia
Varietal: Fiano
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, its beneficial effects on our land, and the stories it can tell through incredible colors, flavors, 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.

Tasting Notes: There isn't much we love more than a glass of white wine in the sun, where all you are looking for is something bright, textural and refreshing - with or without food. For us it's Riversand.
From the remarkable organic Bassham Vineyards in Barmera, the heat of the Riverland brings fun to this wine, with loads of pineapple and ripe nectarine, and a fresh whack of salinity and minerality for outrageous refreshment. Although, the real joy of this wine is the svelte, almost waxy, oily texture -a hallmark of Fiano in full effect here. It's our knockoff wine, it's our Sunday afternoon on the couch with a book wine - hell it's our breakfast wine. Get some before we drink it all.
