2020 Borachio Savagnin

Borachio - a skin for holding wine, commonly a goat's, or a drunkard.' Previously working with James Erskine at Jauma, Alicia and Mark make wine in Carey Gully with fruit sourced from organically farmed vineyards in Mount Compass and Mount Torrens. 

"Whole bunch pressed, fermented to nearly dry, then to barrel for a rest. | For whatever reason i’ve always been drawn to the salty side of life, maybe growing up on a peninsula, being naughty kids hooning around in tinnies, going fishing, getting as much hot chips as you had loose change, ripping oysters of the rocks…yeah makes perfect sense when i write it down. 

AGES ago, Alicia and i used to get Fish and Chips and head down to a spot next to Wamberal lagoon. We’d get your classic fish cocktail and chips and if a dole/royalty cheque had come through i’d splash out on some crumbed scallops, in all their sweet and salty glory, with a proper lemon squash to wash it down. Good times." - Alicia & Mark
