A rosy cheeked Ramato renaissance. Let’s kiss and makeup. A sip with a smile that would leave even kings and queens feeling flush. BLUSH now, but flattery will get you far. A floral flirt well versed in tomfoolery. Putty in the palm of your hand, so while we’re there why not take a taste?

Alpha Box & Dice are a modern, cutting-edge collection of wines - just look at the labels - from the passionate and slightly bonkers trio of Dylan and Justin Fairweather and winemaker Sam Berketa. AB&D was founded in McLaren Vale in 2008 and is unconventional in its approach; there are no ‘regional, varietal or stylistic’ boundaries, just great wines from great fruit.

Forever relevant thanks to its neverending flexibility, Blush Ramato is powered by Pinot Gris, fermented on skins for three weeks to draw out soft peach and pear with a hint of pepper. Sandy loam over schist bedrock soils set up an elegant structure - cellar this one happily for up to ten years.
