About The Wine
Few think outside the Barossa box like Dave 'Yetti' Geyer.
He sees potential in those unwanted odd-ball varieties of the region and takes them into uncharted territory. For this wine, it's Chenin Blanc with a wild streak.
This fruit comes from an organic famred Vine Vale vineyard, with old Chenin Blanc vines yielding tiny amounts of uber-concentrated fruit. Dave nurses them into the winery, lets them hang out on skins for a day, then presses it off with no sulphur added whatsoever.
Full of juicy, yellow fruits, yet saline and savoury through the finish. Interest plus plus, and perfect for sipping in the sun.
About Geyer Wine Co.
David Geyer is challenging some of the traditions of the Barossa Valley, giving a second life to some of the neglected sites across the region and playing with varieties that aren’t exactly mainstream but are all universally delicious.
He makes wines as naturally as possible, always striving for drinkability and charisma in some of these unsung hero varieties of the region.
Some of the grapes he grows himself, some come from like-minded growers in the region.
This is the new Barossa. Check it out.

Critic Reviews
"New vineyard source in Vine Vale. Some carbonic maceration, some skin fermented for a day then pressed off. The lot combined at bottling. Organic farmed vineyard too. This one has no sulphur added. Has been a mighty fine wine in past. Lemony tang. Saline notes. Juicy texture, some faint nuttiness in the mix, creamy in a way but the core is all shattered glass acidity and briskness. Has amazing feel in the palate, moreish in its way, gets you back to the glass for next sip quickly. Savoury white wine, let’s say, and shy of full blast of orange wine zone but has some of the mode of that too. Such a good thing here." - Mike Bennie (The Wine Front)

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).
