In stock.
Before Windowrie became what it is today, their homestead had its own distinct charm. The previous owner, a devoted pig farmer, shared a bond with his animals unlike any other – he welcomed them into his home, quite literally. The pigs roamed freely, becoming as much a part of the house as the walls and the roof themselves.
When the O’Dea family took over and made the homestead their own and welcomed their first child, they began to see their home through a new lens. The thought of anything potentially affecting the purity of their home environment became a pressing concern, which led to a pivotal decision to transition their vineyard practices to organic methods, ensuring that the land, the vines, and the home itself remained as natural and untouched as possible.
Pig in the House honours the quirky history of the O’Dea homestead and the commitment they’ve made to organic farming. It’s a tribute to the past and a promise to the future – just as the pigs found their place inside the house, the O’Dea family has found theirs in nurturing the land with care and respect.
Color: Medium-dark red with purple hues.
Nose: Powerful, youthful and vibrant. Primary notes of plum, blackberry and dark cherry are lifted by vanilla, dark clove and sweet spice.
Palate: These aromas carry through to the palate in abundance. Plush fruit envelops the wine’s natural acidity and subtle oak profile, creating a rich, balanced mouthfeel.
Pairings: Anything in the slow cooker or on the barbecue, mild curry, pizza and parmesan.
