Thoughts about sulphur addition in winemaking

Life is full of surprises. An interesting one recently happened to us when one of Adelaide’s wine professionals told us they’d run into individuals who doubted our sincerity with regard to not adding SO2 to any of our wines, as they “look suspiciously clean”.

We do take that as a compliment, but we would encourage the sceptics to have any of our wines made since 2015 analysed for sulphur dioxide - it only costs 12 dollars and that will rule out any doubt.

Just like anything else, making good wine without additives takes skill and experience. It is a higher-risk game, with deep pitfalls on the way, but avoiding them is exactly what natural winemakers aim to do. And once that’s the case, the benefits are immense: vibrancy, complexity, and brightness. To add to the point, we disagree that our wines taste conventional. Making unique wines and having our individual fingerprints are half the point.
