Delinquente, Screaming Betty, Riverland, Australia

If you look outside the mainstream sea of “big wine” there’s a whole lot more going in Australia than blockbuster Shiraz and supercharged Chardonnay. Con-Greg, winemaker at Delinquente, uses Italian grape varieties well suited to the Mediterranean climate of the Riverland region to make fun, juicy, and delicious wines. They’re not simple by any means but they are super enjoyable, or as Con-Greg puts it, “smashable”. The typically irreverent and eye-catching labels are by Adelaide street artist Ankles. Full and bright with ripe citrus and floral chamomile.
