Description
 
The husband and wife team of Brendan and Laura Carter are the minds behind this relatively new wine label that is based in the Adelaide Hills but draws its fruit from as far away as the Riverland and Clare Valley. Fiano and Nero d'Avola come from the Riverland, where the Carters say they can achieve economically viable crops from those varieties without much (if any) irrigation. The Piemontese varieties come from the Polish Hill River section of Clare Valley, the Nebbiolo from a vineyard originally planted by Penfolds in 1990. These are fun, engaging wines meant to be consumed in their youth, with the focus largely on fruit quality.

When Pipe Dream is on song, it’s arguably the best wine we produce. Ripe, primary fruit, with racy acid and pure red and blue fruits. It’s on song this year. It has an uber addictive raspberry core, with ripples of blueberry and bright red apple. There is a real rocky, mineral acidity that’s a bit new for this wine, but it’s a lovely complexing character. It has some almost lemongrass-y hits too. Love the development of these vines now, after being grafted in 2016 and it should evolve really nicely in bottle. A wine with just a hint of luxury.
