Description
WINEMAKER: Sven Joschke
VARIETAL: Sangiovese
REGION: Langhorne Creek, SA
VITICULTURE: Organic
"24 year old Sangiovese vines from Langhorne Creek beared immaculate fruit that when into this Sangio. Unusually mild 2021 days, cool night breezes coming off Lake Alexandrina provided a consistent and slow ripening journey. Picked super early with fruit desteamed and whole berry wild fermented. Pressed off again “nice and early” to preserve freshness with fermenting juice sent to old French hog heads for barrel fermentation. Minimal sulphur added on bottling. Cherry, blueberry and spice on the nose with lovely texture and length. Beaujolais Nouveau style inspired with that classic rustic Italian edge and dusty tannins."
"Spending the last 15 years abroad and interstate, Sven decided to ditch his life as a Chartered Accountant and come back home to South Australia. Swapping the Casio and spreadsheets for his ultimate calling of wine (originally working under Peter Schell at Spinifex and Jason Schwarz Schwarz Wine Co, as well as some time in Jura), at least he can now claim market research when enjoying some plonk!"

SPÖN PICKS
SPÖN Bottle Shop & Wine Bar: Made for Discovery
A 50-seater wine bar; Inspired by the charming, drink-in bottle shops hidden throughout the cobblestone streets of Europe, explore a rotating world of natural, organic, rare & vintage wines, and craft beers sourced from Australia and across the globe.
Born in Newtown
Nestled in the vibrant heart of Newtown – We created SPÖN as a cozy neighbourhood bottle shop and wine bar that feels relaxed, welcoming and distinctly its own. Creative, a little gritty, a little playful and always full of something new & unexpected — just like Newtown.
A bottle shop with a bar problem.
SPÖN - a discovery-led hybrid bottle-shop/Wine bar experience. Browse the shelves, grab a bottle and drink it at the bar — or pull up a stool and explore a daily rotating board of over 15+ distinct wines being poured by the glass. SPÖN is built around drinking what interests you.
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.
