Emerging in 2014 with Unico Zelo, Brendan and Laura Carter have an ethos - Australian identity for international grapes.
With a commitment to supporting Australian farmers and sustainable practices, their takes on Mediterranean varietals (especially the Italians) have quickly ascended them into super popularity for their fresh outlook, bold flavours and fabulous characteristics.
Minimal intervention in the winery is a priority, as it sustainable practice; passionate about prioritising soil health, they want to feed rather than detract from our natural resources
Varietals that can be dry-grown in hot, dry environment are key - Barbera and Dolcetto, while Rosés cuvées, Greco and Pet Nats hit out with varying levels of skin contact, tactile fruit and delicate perfumes.
Unico Zelo is a small winery, run by the youthful Brendan and Laura Carter. Still only in their twenties, this dynamic couple have been making wine under the Unico Zelo label for the last seven years,
The wines are crafted from varieties that require minimal intervention, both in the vineyard and the winery. These delicious and unique wines combine sustainability and drinkability to great effect.
