Red apples, fresh dough and green strawberries on the noise with a tight creamy palate.
Where Sangiovese makes the sparks ignite. Starts out like the morning sun, feeling fresh and so polite. When you find your baby gotta hold her tight. Everything's a little clearer in the light of day, so why wait for the cold dark night?. Skyrocketing bubbles in flight. Afternoon delight.
Alpha Box & Dice were formed as a laboratory for viticultural exploration in 2008, as the team set up constructing a different wine style to represent every letter of the alphabet. Each member of the ‘Alphabet of Wine’ has its own unique personality that fulfils a different purpose – no two wines are created alike. AB&D wines are all linked by their environment and surrounding, being created holistically through minimal intervention, vegan friendly methods. However, they are completely distinct in their flavour, appearance and orientation. In this way, AB&D wines are just like a (mostly) happy family. With a culture soaked in community, quality and a laissez-faire spirit, Alpha Box & Dice will continue to inspire, delight and surprise in everything they do… and they do a lot!
"Championing the integrity and overwhelming quality of South Australian fruit"
AB&D Vision: Wines without boundaries – regional, varietal or stylistic. Wines whose entire raison d’être is to be delicious and to express the minutia and complexity of site and vintage conditions. Wines that enchant; wines that delight you and leave you betwixt the rock and ripe grape. Through a series of random experiments in the field and adventures in vinous bricolage, these are our modest goals.
Picked in the early morning, then destemmed and lightly pressed. Fermentation takes place naturally in tanks. The small % of Sangiovese is blended in before bottling by hand. The wine is not disgorged.
