Unico Zelo Terra Cotta Greco
After a brief hiatus, this wine makes a triumphant return. Sourced from Ricca Terra's limited plantings of Greco – one of the few active vineyards cultivating this variety in Australia. Named Terra Cotta, a nod to the rich, earthy hue of the soil in which it's grown, and fermented in clay Amphora.
Greco is renowned for its phenolic content and vibrant acidity, attributes that shine when subjected to extended skin contact. This process, traditionally reserved for blending in Campania, elevates Greco into a wine of remarkable depth and complexity. Fermented on skins for 21 days, it boasts an exquisite tannin structure – a firm, silty framework that enhances its character. On the palate, it bursts with flavours of mango, papaya, and blood orange, offering a sumptuous medley of tropical fruits. A truly outstanding creation.
