A pure, light and juicy Adelaide Hills Pinot Noir, built for drinkability over complexity. In 2021 we were able to get some tremendous quality fruit; as pure and unadulterated as Pinot Noir gets. Fuji Apple, bright cherries, and a whiff of smokey earthiness. Pure and elegant. Blueberries, grape, crunchy tannins – all the things you like about Pinot are here. Just without the oak.

Never ones to stand still Brendan & Laura Carter of Unico Zelo decided to launch Tropo, a collection of wines that taste exactly how they look. Fun, contemporary ’throw the bottles on top of ice’ styles that are uncomplicated and do we dare say ’smashable’? wines. I think they would approve. This year’s releases all hail from Adelaide Hills from growers they have known and worked with for many years as part of their former Harvest co-op concept, so the connections and relationships continue to this new brand. – Unizo Zelo
