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.

Some of the most coveted examples of modern Fiano still hail from Campania, but they are made in a more unique and ancient style. While we are no strangers to skin-contact (ahem... Esoterico) we do not make a more dogmatic orange wine than Dreamers Creed. Hailing from our Birdwood vineyard, we skin ferment this Fiano in our locally crafted clay pots - traditionally known as Amphora or Qvevri - for 220 days. We make no additions - including bottling with ZERO sulphur - therefore taking nothing away from the style that inspired it. The Result? A mind bending and utterly unique Australian Fiano. The glass screams of walnut and burnt orange ready for your Old Fashioned with a phenolic structure of dusty tannins that ties this thing together. It's a funky and wild odyssey not for the faint of heart, but those avid fans of the style will be truly rewarded. Only 800 Bottles have been crafted.
