Viticulturally, Nero looks absolutely at home year after year in Riverland, as it’s able to achieve a balanced level of ripeness that we just don’t see year on year with the other regions – it’s probably the easiest of the three to decideThere isn’t much we love more than a glass of white wine in the sun, where all you are looking for is something bright, textural and refreshing – with or without food. For us it’s Riversand. From the remarkable organic Bassham Vineyards in Barmera, the heat of the Riverland brings the fun to this wine – and our 2021 rendition is still in fine form.

Lovely briney, vermouth-esque aromatics, plenty of wormwood and green olive under Riversand’s trademark whiffs of nectarine and a little grilled almond too. The slick, oily mouthfeel is there as always, but with a bit more check and balance this year. With the Riverland, it’s pretty easy for this wine to be fruit dominant, but even 2021 threw perfect balance the Riverland’s way. A lovely lemon juice-riddled salty acid line, before rolling into a wholemeal, toasty complexity. As refined an example of this wine as we’ve seen yet.

About Unico Zelo Wines

Being winemakers, we’re two people incredibly passionate about the soil and produce we have in Australia. It’s our intent to showcase products to the rest of the world that embrace Australian native ingredients and pay homage to the indigenous custodianship who maintained the land for thousands of years.

It’s this passion that has driven us to start two wine labels, one that protects our farmers and another that protects our future. We’ve since taken these concepts and with our distillery, applewood – catapulted it into the horticultural realm – studying indigenous produce, it’s beneficial effects on our land and the stories it can tell through incredible colours, flavours, and textures.

We seek Australian identity in the products we craft and the services we offer. We seek ways to communicate this with an entirely new demographic.

Our hope is that these Australian stories can one-day be heard on a global scale.
