Aquarius— 2021 ENTROPY Gippsland Red
A fresh perspective of a wine! Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris grafted together and grown in complete harmony. Co-fermented together, with surprising results. Vibrant, intelligent and unrestrained. Syrah added for the backbone, this drop sits on the spectrum between red and orange. Savoury, with loads of acid and firm tannins. A wild wine that willed itself into existence.

Aquarius— 2022 SCINTILLA Nightfall Clarete, Tempranillo, Chardonnay, Gamay Blend
Clarete, by definition, is a wine made with red and white grapes co-fermented together. Unconventional and ethereal for Aquarius.
Intriguingly aloof on the nose. Translucent red with notes of sour cherry, strawberry, rhubarb and delicate spice. Refreshing and stimulating. Light tannins and a mild spiciness draw length and brighten the fruit flavours. Citrusy and cerebral. A nice surprise!
