Unico Zelo ‘Esoterico’ 2022

Why we like it
Unico Zelo have been pumping out some phenomenal wines, and this cult favourite is one of the best. Winemaking couple Brendan and Laura Carter aim to create “Italian-inspired, textural and site-expressive wines” and by jove they've done it!
This blend has aromatics by the bucketload; Gewürztraminer, Zibbibo, Moscato Giallo, Greco and Fiano all come to the party here. There's tangerine, grapefruit and ginger on the nose that smells almost sweet but don't let that fool you. There is a snap, crackle and pop of mouth watering acidity. Unfined, unfiltered. Yum!
We often describe this wine as a "Gateway orange wine" to people as it often sets them on a path to a Skin contact/orange wine obsession. If you're interested in discovering Orange wine this is a great place to start (don't say we didn't warn you).
