Adam Barton from the Clare Valley began as a winemaker largely as a result of tasting a glass of the 1965 Lindemans Hunter River Burgundy which was "Magic" as Adam describes it.
Winemaking since 2001, the reason Adam's wines are so special is due to carefully selected vineyards, passionate grower partners & lots of care and attention to the smallest detail in the winery.
Adam's 2012 Watervale Riesling is new in, sourced from old vines in the Watervale sub-region of the Clare Valley this wine is our pick for summer!
Sourcing grapes from fruit grown on the family vineyard in the Strathbogie ranges of Central Victoria. Winemakers don't come much more in love with their job than Sam who would "happily spend everyday around tanks, barrels, stainless steel toys and wine"
A self taught winemaker, a multi award winning winemaker under Plunkett Fowles and currently studying his 'master of wine'.
The Angel funding has accelerated the start-up of Wine by Sam and has helped pave the way for Sam to continue making the great wine he loves to make exclusively for you!
Coming from a wheat and sheep property in the Great Southern region of Western Australia, Liz wanted to do something agriculture related & has now been a qualified winemaker since 2004.
Liz's wines are made with attention to detail, passion and commitment. Liz tried to source the best fruit from the best vineyards to make a wine that is interesting and different whilst something everyone can still enjoy.
After spending a year in Italy studying for her Masters, Liz fell in love with the lifestyle and the wines & draws a lot of passion from this time."
Hamish Maquire knows a thing or two about wine. He was practically raised amongst the vineyards by his stepfather, Shottesbrooke founder, Nick Holmes.
The Naked wine funding has brought to life the 'Engine Room' concept giving Hamish the oppportunity to work outside of the Shottesbrooke style making very special wines for us!
And the reason Hamish's wines are so special... "they're from Mclaren Vale, the grapes do most of the work themselves. Happy vines happy wines..."
