Product Notes

A dazzling blend from South Australia, Some Young Punks The Squid's Fist Shiraz Sangiovese is a bold, intriguing wine. Its deep, ruby red hue welcomes you to a complex melange of flavours including dark berries, cherry, and exotic spices. Its Shiraz lends a robust character, complemented by the Sangiovese's subtle bitterness. Further yielding layers of undertones like chocolate and leather, the finely balanced tannins and acidity enhance the wine's texture. Aged judiciously in oak barrels, this wine promises a delightful linger on the palate. Ideal with red meat, this wine speaks of good craftsmanship and an exciting wine adventure.

About the Winery

Some Young Punks

Some Young Punks, an Australian winery gruesomely named after its bold and modern style, is truly not for the faint-hearted. Nestled in the renowned wine regions of Clare Valley and McLaren Vale in South Australia, the winery prides itself on breaking the norm with their provocative labels and extraordinary tasting wines.

Established by Col McBryde, Jennie Gardner and Nic Bourke - three young punk viticulturists and oenologists - their unorthodox approach to winemaking shook the wine industry at their inception, challenging the traditional. The winery's creative indulgence doesn't stop at the wine but extends to their eye-catching graphic novel-style labels. Intentionally dramatic, each label portrays a narrative that mirrors the adventurous character and complex taste of the wine inside.

Their wines are lauded not just for the innovative packaging, but more vitally, for the quality of the contents inside. Passionate about captivating the true essence of the grape, the Some Young Punks team devotes attention to low-yield vines and optimal vineyard sites. This, alongside their hands-on approach to hand-harvesting and minimal interference in the winemaking process, allows them to produce wines that are packed full of character and elegance.

The unique wine range includes stand out varietals like 'The Squid's Fist', a splendid combination of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, or the cheekily named 'Naked on Roller Skates', which bursts with the boldness of Shiraz and Mataro. Other offerings include 'Passion Has Red Lips', a juicy concoction of Shiraz and Cabernet, and 'The Old Vines' a Riesling packed with luscious citrus tones.

Some Young Punks' innovations are a testament to the relentless pursuit of uniqueness in an often uniform industry. Their audacious approach has cemented their position as one of the new-age Australian wineries, that is resonating with younger generations of wine lovers and connoisseurs alike across the world! If you're a fan of wines that dare to be different, a taste of Some Young Punks will not disappoint you.
