Description

Sourced from the Bassham vineyard in the Riverland. Destemmed, then placed inside wax lined clay amphora. Cap plunged twice daily until ferment finishes and the skins sink down into the wine. Skins, seeds, juice and all remain covered /sealed inside the amphora for 6 months. A flor develops and helps protect the wine. In the spring following the harvest the free run wine is drained off and then combined with a portion of the pressings.

About the winemaker

Brash Higgins is the creative project of American-born sommelier Brad Hickey and McLaren Vale local Nicole Thorpe—a meeting of minds, soil, and a shared curiosity for the unconventional.

After a career in food and wine that took him from New York to Paris, Brad landed in McLaren Vale for a vintage in 2007 and never left. Nicole, whose family had long ties to the region, had planted a small vineyard in 1997 on the distinctive red clay and limestone soils of Omensetter Vineyard. Together, they saw potential in both the land and each other. What followed was a long experiment in pushing boundaries—of grape varieties, winemaking methods, and expectations of what McLaren Vale could be.
