Unico Zelo is an innovative winery located in the Adelaide Hills, established by the dynamic duo Brendan and Laura Carter. The couple launched Unico Zelo fresh from university in 2014, with a focus on producing Italian-inspired, textural, and site-expressive wines. They are known for working with both local grapes and those sourced, aiming to showcase new varieties and transform less celebrated sites into sources of unique wines. They are also the first winery in Australia to be B-Corp Certified, Unico Zelo (meaning “unique zeal”) has a focus on holistic sustainability and regenerative farming while focusing on varietals that will work with the terroir, requiring less human intervention.
Sourced from a family-owned vineyard in the Polish Hill River region of Clare Valley, which is perfectly suited to a variety like Dolcetto. The warm days bring bright, ripe fruit. The cool nights let it retain its natural acidity. The Clare Valley's signature herbaceousness gives it a fragrant edge. Bright plums and cherries are jam-packed in the glass, with svelte tannins.
