That time of year when we remind you we were all 16 once. The time of year where there’s sunshine and flowers and picnics with friends and everything is beautiful in the world and we can just celebrate and drink tasty fizzy juice. Pash & Pop is our orange pet nat. Zibbibo and Vermentino from Ricca Terra Farms in Riverland were left on their skins for about five days, then basket pressed and finished in bottle for a deliciously fruity time.

Aristotelis Ke Anthoula started as a family pastime. Having migrated from rural greece in the early 80s, Aristotelis and Anthoula longed for the feeling of home so they started making their own wine in a garage in the beachside suburbs of Sydney. From the beginning, all their wines were made entirely by hand (and foot) using only grapes, with no additives, no filtration or fining and no pumps or machinery.

All fruit is hand harvested and farmed with care. Our wines are still crafted from grapes alone with the aid of very little machinery. They are carefully made by hand and laboriously fussed over to extract maximum flavour and ensure they are high quality and stable. Natural, wild yeasts are used for fermentation, and there are no chemicals or preservatives added at any time. All of our wines are unfiltered and unfined and to this day we have never added (nor had a need for adding) any sulphur to our wines.
