Approachability is the hashtag that follows Brad Hickey on his trips around Oz and beyond. Known for producing wines of interest, this Ripple sees whole bunch Nero d'Avola flooded with Cabernet juice and carbonic maceration cutting loose to do its thing. The result is a juicy wine high in entertainment value.
Fruit expression and drinkability are the name of the game with this Ripple. Red currants, sour cherries, blueberry pie and pastry open the account. It's sleek, vibey and energetic. Glorious drinking and dangerously smooth, waves of pleasure continue to cascade with blackberries and boysenberries building momentum. Delightfully spiced with a little skinsy feel, black tea tannins have the last say. A wine that will even take a slight chill, give me a large glass, please.
Drink now.
