"On the nose this wine is true to the grape, cut grass, jalapeño, yellow pitted fruits and flint. Being only a few kilometres from the sea, the salty tones meet with the soils limestone minerality, giving the wine length and energy. The shape of the wine on the palate is curvy and oily which compliment the intense aromas and softens the liquid hard edges. There is a balance to this drop that was achieved in multiple picks and considered winemaking, it’s not an easy variety to work with but I’m proud of the results.
Aged for 1.5 years in large format new Austrian oak and in bottle for half a year before release. 500 litres in total."
International model turned TV star turned winemaker extraordinaire, Sierra Reed has made wine all over the world from Barolo to Central Otago to Beaujolais. "A complete immersion in winemaking followed with a rapid succession of vintages as a global nomad in Paso Robles (Hearst Ranch Winery), the Yarra Valley (Domain Chandon), the Napa Valley (Piña), the Barossa Valley (Head Wines), Mornington Peninsula (Kooyong), Central Otago (Rippon), Beaujolais, France (Domain du Vissoux), the Grampians (Mount Langi Ghiran), the Napa Valley (Hunnicutt Winery), Barolo, Italy (E. Pira & Figli – Chiara Boschis) Geelong (Lethbridge Wines), Rheingau, Germany (Robert Weil) and Pfalz, Germany (Kohler Rupreckt)." Woah.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
