Meet the Producers:

Forage Supply Co.

Barossa Valley, SA

Forage Supply Co was born from a long time friendship and a shared dream to create a wine label that gives back. Growing up in the Barossa, founders Scotty and Justin did what many Vallians only talk about built a brand as much for the people as it is for the palate. Their yin and yang dynamic powers Forage: Scotty, the well travelled extrovert and storyteller, brings charm and  hustle, while Justin is the grounded creative, quietly shaping the vision behind the scenes. Together, they've backed projects that support community, help those doing it tough, and tread lightly on the planet. The result? A label rooted in purpose, producing fresh, vibrant wines with big impact and a  light footprint all while keeping their glasses (and humour) full.

Geyer Wine Co

Barossa Valley, SA

Geyer Wine Co is a small, independent producer based in the Barossa Valley, South Australia. We work with regenerative and organically farmed vineyards, focusing on soil health, biodiversity, and long-term sustainability. We aim for a modern, regenerative-leaning reinterpretation of Barossa heritage: rescuing old sites, celebrating diverse varieties and producing wines that read as honest, low-intervention snapshots of place and vintage. We are for drinkers who want authenticity, texture and drinkability without heavy cellar manipulation, who want quality of product without a compromising environmental footprint. Our wines are approachable yet complex, focussed on clarity and energy rather than oak and alcohol, equally suited to the dining table or fine dining. All our wines are fermented using native yeasts, with no additions apart from small amounts of sulphur. The result is elegant, expressive wines that reflect both place and season — minimal interference, maximum character. We explore multi region blends of both white and red as well as drill down into single site expression of variety and terroir.

Moorak Wines

McLaren Vale, SA

From scratch; a literal few tonnes of grapes in 2018, Jordan Hein created Moorak — named as an ode to his birthplace, the small town of Moorak, South Australia. A first-generation winemaker from self- study, experimentation and learning from experience, Jordan developed the label to encompass his stylistic approach to traditional and left-field winemaking techniques. Experimenting and researching more varieties and regions in an ever- developing portfolio of unique and considered wines. These are important elements of Jordan and Moorak’s ideology towards winemaking, while having a low impact to the land itself. Each vintage, Moorak strives for partnerships with sustainable and organic growers, each with a progressive focus on regenerative viticulture. The underlying aim is to present fruit from those with knowledge, a deep understanding of the vines and vehement respect for the land from where it grows. A negotiate style, purchasing grapes from the aforementioned growers, has risen to unique adaptability — allowing Jordan to source, produce and present varieties with more creativity. Not limited by single vineyards, Moorak continues to offer a dynamic range of multi-regional wines produced solely in the one facility. Located in McLaren Vale, South Australia, the winery is a minimal carbon-impact facility, completely off-grid, using Solar power, rainwater and bore water throughout production.
