Spinifex Indigene
"Rich, full-blooded red wine served on rails of velvet. This is a seriously creamy wine, its saturated plum and blueberry flavours gliding through the palate before finishing with a juicy flourish. There’s fine-grained tannin and quite high acidity, but the fruit and oak characters here flush straight through both. Mint and clove notes are also part of the show, as is smoked cedar. It’s still finding its feet but the stuffing here is excellent." The Wine Front, Campbell Mattinson 93+ Pts

Peter Schell, a trained and experienced oenologist, and Magali Gely, who grew up on a vineyard in a wine-making family with their combined background, believe that the vineyard and the health of the land you farm is of the utmost importance. They have been integral players in the 'new Barossa' movement, coming to the region to establish Spinifex in 2001; they looked for cooler sights and chose to pick their fruit earlier than most of the Barossa. They also chose larger and more neutral oak vessels to retain the fruit's purity and elegance. They have shone light on the potential for white varieties and rose in the Barossa, and produce some of the best!
