Unico Zelo 'Alluvium' Adelaide Hills Fiano 2020
Being winemakers, we're two people incredibly passionate about the soil and produce we have in Australia. It's our intent to showcase products to the rest of the world that embrace Australian native ingredients and pay homage to the indigenous custodianship who maintained the land for thousands of years.
It's this passion that has driven us to start two wine labels, one that protects our farmers and another that protects our future. We've since taken these concepts and with our distillery, applewood - catapulted it into the horticultural realm - studying indigenous produce, it's beneficial effects on our land and the stories it can tell through incredible colours, flavours, and textures.
We seek Australian identity in the products we craft and the services we offer. We seek ways to communicate this with an entirely new demographic. Our hope is that these Australian stories can one-day be heard on a global scale. - Brendan & Laura Carter
Tasting notes
Pristine citrus qualities, brimming with grapefruit and lime zest and a clean and mean mineral structure.

Winemaker Notes:
"Ever had a wine that tastes like you're drinking a lazer? Well, we've made one - Alluvium. We've worked with the epic Mylkappa Vineyards, which are just around the corner from our Gumeracha winery in Birdwood, who planted this Fiano (along with some Nero) only a few years ago - you wouldn't pick it after tasting this. Due the Adelaide Hills cooler climate, Alluvium shows absolutely pristine citrus qualities, brimming with grapefruit and lime zest but the real hallmark of this wine is it's lean, clean and mean mineral structure. It's like licking ceviche off a wet rock - if you're into that kind of thing..."
