Unico Zelo True Blue 2022
This unusual blend shows the character of its components, giving a rich and brooding wine with flavours of black fruits, tapenade and spice to complement the supple tannins and fresh finish.
The grapes for this wine are sourced from unirrigated vineyards in the Riverland, Langhorne Creek and Adelaide Hills.
The grapes were destemmed and following a seven-day maceration, the wine was fermented in stainless steel using wild yeast. Malolactic fermentation also took place in tank.

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.
