Not the one your mum drinks at Christmas, this sister is Ruby-hued with orange edges. Born of ironstone and red clay, her depth is complemented by a dry, bright, red currant tang. A mineral lick and fine bead makes drinking her an absolute pleasure – any time of the year.
Shiraz from Top Range, the highest reach of McLaren Vale. Heavy orange clay with an ironstone influence, a cooler block next to a dam and giant gum trees. Picked at full ripeness and direct pressed; bottled in March 2021 and rested 18 months on lees; hand riddled and hand disgorged.
About Borachio Wines
Along with amazing family and friends, we make grape based beverages on Peramangk Country, from fruit grown by beautiful people on Kaurna and Peramangk lands. We strive for wines with energy and finesse, made with immense focus and intent. As such, we keep things in the winery simple and gentle.
All our wines are made without any additions or subtractions — save for our amaro (grape spirit/aromats) and piquettes (water/hops).
High Hopes Wine Company is a wholesaler, importer and distributor of good drinks.
In 2011 a couple of guys, Ned Brooks and Joel Amos, each with a viticulturalist as a parent, bonded over a shared background in wine and a good feeling about where a niche of the wine industry was headed: the questioning of the status quo mass-produced big wines (or Big Wine) in favour of a more natural style of winemaking and grape-growing. Brooks & Amos was born, a small agency business. Many of the Australian producers we met and whose wine we loved were just starting out too.
Fast forward to today and Brooks & Amos has evolved into High Hopes Wine Company – now with Ned Brooks solely at the helm. The producers we work with remain some of the truest characters in the business. They’ve entrusted us with sharing their stories and ~ literally ~ the fruits of their labour and we’re proud to connect them with some of Australia’s best restaurants, bars and retailers.
Our product list is not encyclopaedic, ticking off one of each varietal or region. Nor is it dogmatically ‘natural’. Just a healthy respect for the grapes, the earth they’re grown from, and the craft of the vigneron. It’s what interests us, the things we want to drink.
