Unico Zelo

Our winery · Adelaide Hills, South Australia

Unico Zelo

Australian wine for the climate, food and culture we actually have.

Laura and Brendan Carter

01

Two founders, one idea

Laura and Brendan Carter founded Unico Zelo in 2011 on a simple idea: the land selects the grape variety, and the food and culture select the style.

Fiano vines in the Riverland from above

02

The land picks the grape

South Australia is the hottest, driest state in the hottest, driest wine country on earth. So we work with varieties that thrive in heat and drought, led by Fiano, Zibibbo and Nero d'Avola.

Nero d'Avola grapes held over red sand

03

Proven in the Riverland

The winery is based in the Adelaide Hills, but our most impactful projects are in the Riverland, where we stress-test the future of Australian wine alongside the growers who farm it.

04

The table picks the style

Bright, textural whites for seafood, aromatic orange wines for the Asiatic food Australians now cook at home, and lighter reds made to be served chilled through long summers.

05

Made by us

From the 2026 vintage, every wine is made by Laura and Brendan themselves, at our winery in the Adelaide Hills. We are a certified B Corporation, and every wine is vegan friendly.

06

Nothing wasted

Unico Apero turns our own wines into vermouth, and the Cellos are made from South Australian citrus, including lemons from a 150-year-old Adelaide Hills orchard whose whole crop we buy.

Rewild Australia

Applewood set out to rewild Australia: build a real market for the continent's native ingredients, and those species become worth keeping in the ground.

02

A postcard from each ecosystem

Each gin is built on botanicals from one ecosystem: desert lime, peppermint gum and wattleseed from the arid interior; strawberry gum, riberry and karkalla from the northern coastline; mountain pepper leaf and finger lime from the high country.

Made in the Adelaide Hills

Every gin is distilled on a grape spirit base at our distillery in the Adelaide Hills and bottled at 43%. We were Australia's first winery and distillery to certify as a B Corporation, and Coral gives 1% of every sale to the Reef Restoration Foundation.

Økar Island Bitter on a bar

01

Named for ochre

Økar takes its name from ochre, the coloured clay beneath Australia's soil. Its backbone is native: riberry, Davidson plum and native currants over gentian and rhubarb root. An aperitivo can carry far more botanicals than a gin, so every bottle buys more native produce from growers.

02

Pour it long

Island Bitter is the original, deep and herbal. Tropic is the juicy one, made with spirit reclaimed from our own gin runs. Pour them long with tonic or soda, in a spritz or a Negroni, or wherever an Italian aperitivo would go.

Wines we love, from families we have met.

01

Why we import

Travelling with Unico Zelo, we kept noticing that the way the world sees Australian wine is very different from what Australians drink at home. Other wine countries have the same gap, so we import a small number of wines that show it: German Chardonnay and Spätburgunder, and Portuguese Encruzado and Jaen.

Mosel, Germany

Daniel Fries

Daniel Fries wines on a table

01

A bottle in Düsseldorf

We first drank Daniel's Terrassen Pinot Noir in a small Riesling bar in Düsseldorf during ProWein, and a long call with Daniel did the rest.

02

Nine generations

His father, the eighth generation on these slopes, planted Pinot Noir in the Mosel in 1986. Daniel trained in Germany, Burgundy and Oregon before coming home to the family's steep slate terraces around Winningen.

03

Old casks, dry wines

His Spätburgunder is elegant and bright, and his Rieslings rest on their lees in large old casks for a drier, more textural style.

Baden, Germany

Kopp

Kopp wines with glasses

01

Baby-blue labels

We found Kopp at ProWein, drawn in by the baby-blue labels and won over by the Spätburgunder, Chardonnay and Riesling.

02

From one hectare

Ewald Kopp, a mechanic, planted his first hectare of Spätburgunder near Baden-Baden in 1996. The estate has grown to 32 hectares.

03

Farmed biodynamically

His son Johannes was working at Bleasdale in South Australia when Ewald died in 2012, and came home to run the estate. He has since stopped using herbicides and mineral fertilisers, and the vineyards have been certified biodynamic by Demeter since 2022.

The best Encruzado we know

We have long been taken with Encruzado, a Portuguese white that is textural and carries oak as well as Chardonnay does. The best we have found comes from Taboadella, the Amorim family's estate in the Dão.

Harvest in the Taboadella vineyards from above

02

Granite, altitude, no irrigation

Its 42 hectares sit at 400 to 530 metres on granite and are farmed without irrigation, with vines averaging 30 years old and some plots over a century. The reds come from native varieties: Touriga Nacional, Jaen and Alfrocheiro.

Final stock

Troppo

Troppo was our answer to excess in the vineyard. We bought fruit our growers could not sell and made fresh, easy-drinking wines at an approachable price, and the relationships it built helped growers graft over to varieties like Fiano. Troppo is being phased out, and these are the final releases.
