The Adelaide Hills is one of the coolest wine appellations in South Australia, located in the Mount Lofty Ranges of Adelaide. Driving from the red earth of Mclaren Vale or the dry plains of the Barossa, the Adelaide Hills feel more like the Sussex Downs than South Australia. Lush greenery and rolling hills you can see why the region makes such different styled wines, and is famous for more creative winemakers.
This unique geography is all apparent in Mikey & Zoe's wines which stand out to us with their wonderful branding which really suits the clarity you find in their wines.
Mikey has worked across 3 continents making wine with time spent in the Williamette Valley in Oregon and in the Rhone Valley in France. Great training for the often European styled wines he now makes. The whites have a common lightness of fruit and alcohol which combines brilliantly with the extra minerality from the cooler climate. This is also true of the Shiraz which has more of a refined and less intensive power than many an Aussie version. Most recently Mikey has started to make a Pinot Munier red, which we instantly fell in love with reminding us of French Beaujolais like a Fleurie or a Morgan.
Zoe and Mikey set out to build their own wines in 2018 and it is a true labour of love! We think their wines bring a perfect introduction to the very best of the Adelaide Hills and complement our other family winemakers perfectly.
