Introducing our 2026 ‘Nera’ Nero D’Avola.

Pouring this weekend in our McLaren Vale tasting room.

A little about her…
She is bright, juicy and incredibly moreish, you won’t be happy with just the one date.. you’ll be dreaming of the next moments together as Nera lingers in your palate.
Deep plum, rhubarb and mulberry notes, with hints of spring flowers and violets intertw**ed with delicate spices.
While she has a vibrant and engaging energy don’t be fooled to think Nera doesn’t also have some casual chic style and a touch of class to her persona.

A long way from the village of Avola in Sicily this ancient red grape has found a home in McLaren Vale.
Sustainable, suitable and downright delicious in your glass with or without food.

We’re easing into a gentle Mediterranean vibe this long weekend.
We’ll start with Vox Pop bubbles of course, then lean into brand spanking new releases of Fiano and Nero D’Avola.. our much loved Grenache Blanc, drop of Rose because you just can’t not and….
Grenache, and a little more Grenache in various guises because it’s delicious 😋
