WINEMAKER: Kate & Rob Burley
REGION: Nelson, NZ
VARIETAL: Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris
VITICULTURE: Organic
"Jurassic is 60% Pinot Noir (multi-clonal) and 40% Pinot Gris that has been aged in 5 year old puncheons for 6 months. Dry red fruits sit alongside soft tannin - rounding out an everyday red designed for pizza & laughs.
This little red number is the perfect addition to your Italian themed pizza night that even nonna wouldn’t refuse. Aromas of blueberry, forest floor, mushroom, sweet smoke and tomato stalk that follow through to the palate. A light palate weight with a big burst of flavour. Fine, gentle tannin follows close behind, finishing with a hint of stalky creaminess."
Rob Burley found his place in the wine world after working for a number of great like-minded producers abroad but it wasn’t until he moved to Australia and started to work for Bill Downie and Patrick Sullivan that the concept for Unkel Wines was born. He and his wife Kate recently returned to New Zealand in 2019 where their inspiration & devotion towards organic viticulture & heartfelt wines continues to unfurl.

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.
