Exactly As It Should Be

FREDERICK STEVENSON
We’ve been following Steve Crawford (AKA Frederick Stevenson) for a few years now and are continually impressed by his commitment to showing a different side of common varieties in South Australia and putting his spin on some new(ish) ones too. What started as a side hustle and creative outlet from his day job at a larger winery is now standing firmly on its own two legs – although the moniker remains.
RILEY HARRISON
Following stints in California, Germany and Portugal absorbing their rich winemaking history, Riley Harrison settled back in South Australia, starting his namesake label. By using some of the best connections you can have in the industry across Barossa, McLaren Vale and Adelaide Hills to source exceptional fruit to spin into wines that are uniquely his own, Riley Harrison is a name you should probably get used to seeing a lot more of.
Arianna Occhipinti
Arienna Occhipinti has been working in the wine industry since she was 16 and creating wines under her own label since she was 22. In the years since, this wunderkind has further developed her craft and commitment to biodynamic practices, adopting the saying “We do not inherit the land from our ancestors, we borrow from our children” as a winemaking philosophy.
Occhipinti has rightfully earned her ‘cult’ status amongst wine fanatics, with her SP68 wines in particular winning over the Sometimes Always team. Her wines are hard to come by and on very limited allocation, so we’re lucky to have these three new vintage releases in stock.
NGERINGA
Discover the new range – and new look – from one of Australia’s pioneering biodynamic and organic wineries, Ngeringa. Their wines are grown, vinted and bottled on the estate, meaning they never venture far from where they’re grown, until they reach your glass.
