The knives are out from these anarchists of the wine world. Tired of all the marketing hype, empty promises and blandness proffered by Australia’s large scale wine manufacturers, FKW are slashing through the forest of forgettable bottles and bringing it back to flavour, fun, and revolutionary value. It’s not about limited edition, family heritage, old vines, traditional vinification blah, blah, blah; instead it’s about great tasting wine at a price that will see you going back for another bottle. This is the same team that brought you Some Young Punks, so you can be sure that the wines are as good looking as they are drinkable. Resisting the temptation of their peers to overcomplicate the winemaking process, the FKW team have chosen to ‘referee’, rather than direct their wines, letting them evolve as nature intended. Battle Island is the first release under the FKW label and guarantees to take you to a place where you can sit back, relax and reflect on your good fortune for finding something quite so tasty at such a great price.
From the team that brought us Some Young Punks comes this handy little value blend. Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling. Much more quirky interest than you'd normally expect at this price point. Well worth a look.
