A divine collection of certified organic and vegan wines that will leave your taste buds wanting more.

Perfect for all dining occassions and a variety of dishes, these wines will go down a treat with a rich mushroom stroganoff or vegetable casserole, as well as your classic barbecued red meats.

Collection includes:

1 x Bumblebee South Australia Shiraz 2019 (Australia)

The nose is inviting and ripely fruited, all bright red-berried fruit, plums and sweet spice with a hint of savoury oak. The palate is medium bodied and approachable with dark berry and cassis flavours framed by soft tannin.

Bumblebee encapsulates all that a healthy partnership with the environment can be – a harmony with nature through organic, sustainable and vegan friendly practices that allow all to flourish – the vines, the plants and the animals. The Bumblebee wines have been created by Con-Greg Grigoriou and Corey Ryan to be classically and varietally expressive styles that are approachable and well balanced.

1 x Il Villaggio Organic Nero D'Avola Sicilia IGT 2018 (Italy)

While slightly brooding on the nose this is characteristic Nero d’Avola with lifted aromatics and plush fruit intensity. Plum, blackberry and black cherry richness with supporting milk chocolate, brown spices and earthy complexity that is so typical of the region. The wine has a plushness of berries finishing long and dry with savoury notes and freshness of acidity. The tannins are soft and deliver a clear all-rounder; food friendly wine and an easy one to like on its own.

1 x Indigo Organic Grape Growers Collective Indigo Nero D'Avola 2018 (Australia)

AWARDED 91/100 POINTS & 4.5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2019

"The wine is sweetly fruited and beautifully perfumed on the nose showing dark plum, raspberry, floral and subtle spice characters, followed by a juicy palate that is supple and flowing. The wine offers excellent fruit purity and vibrancy, wonderfully framed by supple tannins. At its best: now to 2023. Certified organic" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2019

"Quirky label, lacquer, cherry (halves and maraschino), sweet pouch tobacco, roast walnut and dark raspberry. A palate full of chewy tannins, toasted spice and charry meatiness. Plenty of dark spice fun on offer" Regan Drew, 'Wineries say not to nasties', Feb 2020

This is a classic example showcasing ripe red berries with blood plum and mulberry fruit, brown spices, milk chocolate with soft supple tannins. A medium weighted, food friendly wine style that abounds with generosity of flavour whilst maintaining its fresh and easy-going nature. This wine is organic and vegan friendly.

1 x Indigo Organic Grape Growers Collective Indigo Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 (Australia)

AWARDED 93/100 POINTS & 5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2019

"Richly fruited and youthfully charming, the wine shows crème de cassis, Black Doris plum, violet and mixed spice characters, leading to a concentrated palate that is wonderfully weighted and silky. It is powerful and mouthfilling with generous flavours, finishing long and velvety. At its best: now to 2026" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2019

This Cabernet shows true character of the region through dark, brooding berry fruit flavours with earth and undergrowth. Subtle floral, violet-like aromas and flavours with vanilla and cedar meandering through the rich fruit flavours with subtle dried herb and tobacco nuance. Drinking wonderfully now as a full flavoured and mouth-filling wine with plushness of fruit pulled long with typical grainy tannins that will also ensure longevity if cellared carefully.

1 x Farm Hand Monash Valley Organic Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 (Australia)

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Best Value: China Wine & Spirits Awards 2020

AWARDED 90/100 POINTS & 4.5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

"The wine is attractively fruited and fragrant on the nose showing blackcurrant, vanilla, almond and floral characters, followed by a beautifully weighted palate that is elegant yet flavoursome. It is silky and lingering with ripe fruit flavours and spicy nuances. At its best: now to 2023" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

The nose is lifted and expressive, displaying mellow red fruits, a dusty herbal perfume, and notes of mocha oak. The palate is likewise open and medium bodied with blackcurrant, olive and mulberry flavours matched by subtle notes of tobacco. The wine is generous in the mid palate before soft tannins and bright acidity carry the wine to a lingering finish.

Food Pairing: The wine looks great on its own or with richer red meat cuisine.

1 x Farm Hand Monash Valley Organic Shiraz 2019 (Australia)

AWARDED 90/100 POINTS & 4.5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2019

AWARDED 89/100 POINTS: Gary Walsh, The Wine Front

"Youthfully charming and fragrant, the bouquet shows Black Doris plum, mulberry, violet and olive characters, leading to a succulent palate that is supple and smooth. It is flavoursome and lingering with a silky-smooth finish. At its best: now to 2024" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2019

"Raspberry, plum, almond, almost pretty to smell. Medium-bodied, ample fruit, juicy and well-balanced, a lick of tannin, a little spice laid on, and a satisfactory finish. Bang on. No complaints here" Gary Walsh, The Wine Front

"Finding good certified organic wine under $20 can be trial and error, but Farm Hand, a brand from marketing guru Nic Crampton and team, seems to nail the brief. The wine is redolent of ripe plum, choc-liquorice and smoky-clove spice. The palate has an appealing plushness, cuddly tannins and a sweet richness of flavour that sloshes around the mouth well. It’s a relatively simple wine but ticks all the boxes for easy appeal and general drinkability" Mike Bennie, Best Buy Wines $20 and under, Jan 2020

The nose is ripe-fruited and inviting displaying bright red-berried fruit, plums and sweet spice with a hint of savoury oak. The palate is nicely medium bodied and approachable with a dark berry and cassis flavours framed by soft tannins.
