Fresh and fruity, with a gentle mousse, this 'pet-nat' combines crisp green apples and ripe nashi pears, with a lip-smacking, savoury finish.
The grapes come from vineyards in the Riverland planted on sand over limestone.
Fermentation was carried out using wild yeast, but the wine was bottled before the primary fermentation was completed, meaning that carbon dioxide was trapped in the bottle, giving a gentle carbonation to the wine.

Unico Zelo was founded by Brendan and Laura Carter to promote the planting of sustainable and drought resistant varieties like Fiano and Nero d'Avola, in an effort to reduce the amount of water used in the Australian wine industry, particularly in regions that are drought-prone and heavy irrigation is viewed as common practice - primarily the Riverland.
