It's pretty wicked what Brad Hickey does with Zibibbo. Selected for its thicker skins and its ability to impart its personality on the finished wine, this spent 150 days on skins in Amphorae. Hickey raised eyebrows with his debut release and a keen following has been the result with winemakers wanting in on the action too. All this from his first vintage using fruit that was given away because no one would take it. How times have changed...
