Staff Pick Notes

Smallfry Wines make fresh and vibrant wines which diverge from the traditionally heavy fruit bombs of the Barossa Valley.

The vast country leaves lots of room for variation, however, with its many terroirs each yielding distinctively styled wines. The climate of South Australia’s McLaren Vale district is heavily influenced by the ocean; wines here typically show savory notes of olive and spice on the nose and deep berry flavors on the palate....
