With this delightful Italian-inspired Negroamaro / Nero d'Avola blend, winemaker Greg Grigoriou goes in search of a "don't think, just drink" style of red.
Greg says "I just wanted a juicy, easy-drinking red wine with something a little extra going on just under the surface." and he's done a very smart job of it. This is great value.
The juiciness of the Nero d'Avola being tamed by the sleekness and savouriness of the Negroamaro. The Riverlands continue to be the haven for young winemakers looking for affordable, well-grown fruit with some interest.
All that is on show here in Roxanne the Razor.
Greg Grigoriou's mission is simple.
He is trying to make interesting yet smashable wines from some unique fruit growing in the Riverlands.
This stuff is all about fun times and chilled wines. Bright, energetic and full of personality, these wines offer a great entry point for people looking to explore alternative varieties.
Greater than the sum of its parts, the NND brings disparate grape varieties together in harmony: Negroamaro and Nero d’Avola. These two varieties that stood up best in this topsy turvey vintage, with good yields, fantastic fruit quality and ripping acidity. They are perfectly suited to the hot, dry Riverland and the nature of the wines we want to make.

"Negroamaro, the bold Calabrian grape, brings the earthy, savoury and moreish; while the Nero d’Avola, the noble grape of Sicily, provides the bright, sour cherry fruit and acidity. Italian grapes grown together under the Australian sun, The NND is a sultry wine; brooding and alluring, smokey and spicy, juicy and delicious." - Delinquente
"Cherry juice! So cheery and bright, sweet as and floral perfume, candied and pretty, so very inviting. Juicy and sweet too, but for the lightly chalky and slightly sour finish with a good dusting of spice in the mix. Lots of spice. Refreshing, light and vivacious red. Bags of fun!" - Mike Bennie (The Wine Front)
