2023 Smallfry Starry Night
Description
WINEMAKER: Wayne Ahrens
VARIETY: Cinsault
REGION: Barossa Valley, S.A.
VITICULTURE: Biodynamic
As our Cinsault plantings bear fruit it is a pleasure to be exploring the potential of this variety to counter the effects of climate change. This is pure unadulterated Cinsault, it is important to me that light palate weight does not mean a simple wine.
Cranberries, raspberries with a bit of plum on the nose. Starts juicy then finishes dry, puckering on the palate.
"Cinsault. From Wayne Ahrens’ family vineyard and all biodynamic farmed. Juicy and bright expression, lively and pretty, lots of sweetish red fruits and powdery tannin, a crunch to acidity and strong pomegranate and cranberry red fruit vibes. Really refreshing, lighter red wine style with freshness and vitality in spades. Yum. 92 Points" - Mike Bennie, The Wine Front, June 2022

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.
