About The Wine
This is a fantastic introduction into the wild and wooly world of skin contact white wines.
This Sauvignon Blanc & Riesling fruit is from one of the more special sites in the west, the great L’enclos du Tertre vineyard farmed by Lee Hasselgrove. The fruit spent an average of six days on skins to pick up colour, tannin, texture and chew. The third full swing at this fun wine style from young Ryan O'Meara and he's hit it out of the park.
If you're looking to check out the 'orange' or 'amber' wine scene but don't know where to start, this is the perfect gateway drug.
About Express Winemakers
Express Winemakers is Ryan O'Meara's pint-sized wine operation from the deep south of WA.
From kicking off in 2011, Ryan has assembled a group of top-flight vineyards from around the Great Southern that supply him with top-flight fruit to make his fun and creative range of wines.
There's some serious value to be had in the Express range, from funky skinsy whites, through spicy cool-climate reds and everything in between.
Express Winemakers is a terrific example of the ever-rising tidal wave of young and adventurous WA producers reinventing the west!

From The Producer
Riesling and Semillon from the organically farmed L’enclos Du Tertre vineyard in the Great Southern’s Frankland River sub-region. Hand picked on the same day, parcels were fermented separately for an average of six days on skins before basket pressing to a combination of mature oak and ceramic egg. The 2020 version is as aromatic as ever with aromas of white flower and citrus and a mouthful of fresh tannins, in the nicest possible way.

Critic Reviews
Great mix of grip and zing here. Orange flavours, some herbal tea, plenty of tannin to hold onto but freshness too. Great little intro into the wine style. User friendly and delicious. - Different Drop Wine team

Do I have to order in dozens? No, please mix it up! You can order wines in any quantity and variation you like. You can order 1 bottle or 50. We challenge you to make the ultimate mixed pack of wine!
Are there volume discounts? No, our pricing is designed to be the best in market already - no marking up and then discounting down! For very large orders (weddings, etc) we are open to negotiating though. Just give us a call.
Do we price match? Yes, within reason. Everyday low & consistent pricing is something we strongly believe in. We want our customers to feel confident they are always getting the best price. If you see a price lower somewhere else let us know and we'll consider matching it. We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.
Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.
I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.
Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.
Can I special order a wine you do not sell? If it’s doable, then we’ll make it happen. Just contact us directly via phone, chat or email and we’ll find out for you right away. Please note that in most cases special orders such as these will need to be in full case lots (6 or 12 bottles).
