2023 Hopeless Thoughtful Cowboy Junkies
Description
WINEMAKER: Hamish MacDonald
REGION: Wollongong, NSW
VARIETY: Syrah, Pinot Gris
VITICULTURE: Organic
Organic Syrah and Pinot Gris grown in Molong. 50/50 blend, foot stomped, left overnight and then basket pressed to neutral French oak. A slow leak began to seep from the croze of the barrel and after three months of trial and error, I was able to melt sealing wax into the join which fixed the leak. So after a total of 2 years in barrel this weird oxidative-rosato style wine was born. No sulphur, lots of wild, yeehaw. Think chewy strawberry zappos and green walnuts.

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.
