Electric white, saline tang, minerally. Quinine and grapefruit juice, salty mineral water, green apple juice, incredibly long and rolling, mouth-watering finish. Understated in a way, but there’s plenty going on here. Super refreshing. Very special wine.
BK Wines was established in 2007 by Brendon and Kirstyn Keys. The goal has been to create fabulous art. Beautiful, unique, sensuous, deceptively minimalist, envelope-pushing art. After learning from masters in NZ, Argentina and California, they trained their sites on the Adelaide Hills. With no pretensions to be somewhere it’s not and few preconceived notions about what wine styles to expect, this is a place where non-conformity is the rule.
