Background
First Drop was born in 2004. Conceived by two friends, Matt ‘Gantos’ Gant and John ‘JR’ Retsas, with a desire to make wines to drink, not just appreciate. Mother’s Milk! Based at the ‘Home of the Brave’ in the Barossa, First Drop is making wines with flavour, texture and a splash of funk; from fruit sourced from unique vineyards in the Adelaide Hills, McLaren Vale and Barossa to bring you a diverse, deliciously exciting and thought provoking line up of flavours. Seriously fun!
Tasting Notes
The Eusebio of the classic Portuguese varieties, Touriga Nacional is ideally suited to the maritime climate of McLaren Vale. A fast, lively red with a great right foot, this “Vinho do Vale” is made for immediate enjoyment at all team events. Vibrant red. Bouquet is lifted red and blue fruits with a hint of Earl Grey. The palate: blue fruit fl avours, with an Indian ink mid palate and a refreshing Earl Grey finish.
We’re sure it’s going to kick goals for you!
