“2024 Daa_See Carbonic Shiraz: Darcy Chiswell took the most hands-off approach of all the winemakers, letting his batch of grapes ferment carbonically as whole bunches with no additions, including no added preservatives. He also lists all the music he listened to during the process, from Ethel Cain to Mo’Ju to G Flip to Tracy Chapman. The palest and most developed looking of the wines, it’s also the most rustic: almost pinot noir-like, rosehip and currant and undergrowth flavours, slightly tart, powdery, sticks-y and yeasty to finish. For fans of raw natty wines.” - Max Allen – Financial Review
Excitingly ‘daa_see’ wines was selected to participate in Inkwell Wines ‘Hacking the Future of Shiraz’ competition which provided 5 hand-picked ‘australian’ winemakers 1 tonne of free Regenerative Organic Certified Shiraz grapes. The purpose of this project is to regenerate interest in Shiraz with ethical, high quality, and approachable styles of producing that resonate with younger, diverse, and new wine drinkers. We are making wine like our industry depends on it!

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.
