Bone-dry Gewürztraminer with softness, texture and aromatic lift

Weird Berries comes from a single Adelaide Hills vineyard, harvested on 11 March, a full month later than the previous vintage. The fruit was pressed directly into seasoned French oak with full solids, with all pressings retained to build flavour and texture. Full malolactic fermentation and additional lees stirring bring a generous softness and creamy, nougat-like feel.

Fresh lychee, tangelo blossom and lavender meet Meyer lemon and mānuka honey on the nose. Rose petal and lemongrass lead the palate, followed by chalky texture, mandarin skin and a lively thread of jasmine and ginger.

Despite its aromatic richness and rounded texture, the wine finishes bone dry, crisp and beautifully bright. Long, expressive and wonderfully generous.

Why we love it

Aromatic and luxurious yet completely dry, with exotic florals, citrus, creamy texture and a bright, nervy finish.

About the Winemaker
In the Adelaide Hills, Amber and the team at Ochota Barrels creates wines that honor the memory of founder Taras Ochota, continuing his vision under the stewardship of Amber, Yari, and Louis.

These are wines born of intuition - grapes picked when they're irresistibly delicious, guided by natural acidity and wild fermentation. Old bush vines in living soil produce concentrated fruit that speaks for itself through minimal intervention winemaking.

Following Occam's Razor, they believe simplicity reveals truth. The result: gorgeous, authentic wines with none of the nasties and all of the love—a celebration of place, season, and the human spirit that tends the vines.
