It’s a savoury, spicy red with dark cherry, crushed poppyseed, blackcurrant, nettle and meat pan juices. Cool, punchy and with plenty of fine, powdery tannins–it’s a crazy value for those who love intense, savoury reds.

A blend of Tempranillo, Grenache and Mataro. This bright, spicy and textural wine is made from grape varieties of Spanish origin grown in vineyards in three of South Australias premium wine growing regions. That’s why we call it “The Spaniard”.
Where do we begin?
We could start the Atlas story in any number of places. At one of Adam Barton’s formative winemaking jobs, in McLaren Vale, Coonawarra, the Barossa, Western Australia, the South of France or California’s Central Coast. Before that, at the University of Adelaide, where he studied oenology. Or in the Hunter Valley, where he first discovered the magic of wine, in a glass of 1965 Lindemans Hunter River Burgundy.
We could go back even earlier, to Amy Lane’s childhood in the South Australian Mid North, on the arid, sandy paddocks that have been farmed by her family for generations.
But where Atlas began in earnest is on a 26-acre block of land, a vineyard planted with Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, on the eastern slopes of the Clare Valley. The year was 2007. Adam and Amy made an investment in Clare, an investment in their future, and Atlas Wines was born.

The Vineyard
The Peglidis vineyard has been carefully tended by the same custodians for the last forty-nine years and is an important wine growing source for wines by KT.
With its chocolate loam soil over limestone, the soil has great water holding capacity to ensure healthy vine canopy as fruit protection. This all makes for grapes in excellent condition and health.

KT Bianca Vermentino 2021 South Australia Clare ValleyKT Bianca Vermentino 2021
Bianca by KT is made from Vermentino grown by the Koerner family in the hamlet of Leasingham in the Clare Valley. Vermentino is a white grape variety that originally heralds from the island of Sardinia in Italy and is enjoyed for its resistance to dry and warm conditions and its high natural acidity. This wine is created using wild fermentation techniques, meaning 100% indiginous yeast and partially fermented in older French oak barrels.
This Vermentino has gorgeous aromatics and florals and a textural savoury palate with a zesty citrus finish. As is the tradition in Italy – it’s perfectly partnered with sardines.

KT Churinga Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2015 South Australia Clare ValleyKT Churinga Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2015 – A truly finessed Australian red, KT Churinga Cabernet Sauvignon is the result of gently basket-pressing intensely-flavourful Clare Valley grapes and aging them in both new and old French oak barrels – a process that imparts a complex, oak-driven depth and richness to the deliciously savoury wine.
Named after KT Wines’ ‘Churinga Vineyard’ in the South Australian township of Watervale, this masterfully developed red is the passion of devoted Clare Valley winemaker Kerri Thompson.
With a powerful fruitiness to round out this incredibly balanced red wine, KT Churinga Cabernet Sauvignon is an example of truly outstanding Clare Valley Cabernet Sauvignons.

The word ‘Pazza’ in Italian is the feminine version of CRAZY. Fittingly, this is my wild fermented, preservative-free, unfined, unfiltered, Riesling sourced from the dry grown Watervale Peglidis vineyard. This wine is oxidatively handled and fermented in a blend of stainless steel and fifteen-year-old French oak barriques for 12 months. This slightly off-dry style has savoury qualities that show that Riesling can indeed come in many different shapes and sizes.
Sealed with a screwcap to ensure the integrity of the product, you can be confident that this wine will continue to reward you with careful cellaring.
