LONDON EVENTS

Pedro Parra + Alkina + Friends + Liberty W**es + Flint W**es

On Monday 5th October Pedro Parra and Amelia Nolan (Amelia Iles)! will present two atomic tastings at 67 Pall Mall London exploring Terroir and the connections between soils, rocks, vines and w**es.

The timing coincides with the arrival of the 2nd edition of Pedro’s “Terroir Footprints” book. We’ve had a sneak peak and we’ve gotta say… it will change the way you see w**egrowing forever.

There are a last couple of spots available for the tastings so if you’re in the London trade and want to have your mind 🤯 then drop us a DM.

We’re excited to announce that we have taken custodianship of the historic Trial Hill Vineyard in Eden Valley, from Barossa vigneron Joel Mattschoss.

The vineyard’s contour-planted Grenache, Shiraz and Riesling vines are approximately 80 years old and sit between 450m and 480m above sea level, overlooking the Barossa Valley below.

The 24HA property rises steeply to c.550m above sea level and our goal will be to plant an additional terraced bush vine Grenache block on these upper slopes, which would place it amongst the highest Grenache vineyards in Australia.

We’ll get to work in there with Alberto and Pedro next year to map the geology and our initial exploratory work suggests a complex landscape where deeply weathered quartzite and schist have broken down over time to form sandy, free-draining soils that are quite different to those of our Greenock vineyard. Just as in Greenock, it will be farmed organically and biodynamically, with certification to follow in due course.

The team can’t wait to start work with these precious old vines in this beautiful, cool, higher altitude setting. We’re very grateful to Joel for considering Alkina to be a fitting custodian of such a special place.

Amazing the people you meet on the road!

Amelia Nolan (Amelia Iles)! is in China this week and kicked off events yesterday at Biotype W**e Bar Shanghai. A great session only got better when Eben Sadie arrived for a chat and a taste. The The Sadie Family W**es Soldaat Grenache is ever-present in all our bench-marking tastings. An inspirational w**e…and a pretty epic human (and team!) behind it.

Events continue over the next few days in China, working closely with Cassidy Dart MW🍷, before Amelia heads on to Japan over the weekend for an exciting set of events with Jeroboam（ジェロボーム）. Nothing better than sharing Australian fine w**e stories with the world 👌

As we launched the new 2026 Kin Rose and 2025 Kin Grenache over the weekend it was the perfect opportunity to gather friends and share our story, w**es and hospitality.

If you would love a holistic vigneron experience that explores our ancient Barossa soils and rocks, our w**emaking philosophy, a cellar tasting and a delicious menu then please get in touch. We have several bookable experiences on the website, as well as the ability to create bespoke itineraries for medium sized groups.

And for the eagle-eyed amongst you, yes we did start with Bodega Garzón Sparkling Extra Brut, which has just landed - it’s looking epic!

Get in touch to discuss your booking or to purchase new releases, including the sparkling.

Thank you to SARAH CASTLE for the beautiful photography 📸

Join us to celebrate the release of two new Grenache w**es that showcase different seasons and different styles.

2025 Kin Grenache - a warm, dry year and Kin Grenache shows its trademark structure and aromatic complexity with a touch more weight and fruit drive.

2026 Kin Rose - a later, cooler vintage yielding fruit with intensity and colour. Powerful, dry, textural Kin Rose from a wonderful newly grafted Grenache Block (20) containing a strip of limestone.

On Saturday 22nd and Sunday 23 October you can have a guided tasting of these 2 new vintages with a serving of delicious 10 hour slow cooked pulled lamb and flatbreads for $25. Book in on our website to guarantee a spot.

Loving these words from CAMPBELL MATTINSON about our new 2025 Fractures Grenache.

You can count on Campbell for a great turn of phrase, with evocative prose and enthusiasm, always. His website is full of goodness. Take a look.

The whole Alkina team is delighted to share the news that our vineyard, and Polygon No. 1in particular, has been named as one of the 10 Greatest Vineyards in Australia, by Decanter Magazine.

With a list that includes Hill of Grace, Mt Edelstone, Tolpuddle, Florita, Bastard Hill, High Sands, Oakey Creek, Giaconda and Grosset’s Polish Hill, this is wonderful endorsement of how much has been achieved by Amelia, Johnny, Alberto, Pedro, Malcolm and the broader team in 10 short years.

It really is all about the vineyard and we love that this special place has been recognised by Decanter writer, David Sly, in this way. Polygon No. 1 is six rows of 70 year old Shiraz vines planted on heavily fractured schist and quartzite with precious little topsoil. These ancient rocks and the distinctive terroir of the Barossa’s Western Ridge are incredibly special.
