Domaine Lucci Wildman Pinot Noir 2015: We're not sure what's behind the "Wildman" name. We've heard it makes reference to Tim Wildman, MW extraordinaire and leader of the fabulous James Busby wineland tours. Or it could easily refer to Anton himself - not a stretch given this is the man who's been known to wear hot pants to official Aussie tasting events. Or may it refers to the general wildness of the wine - whole bunch, nothing-done-to-it pinot noir that manages to be juicy and earthy, structured and gluggable, a touch funky but not at all dirty. If you've had the Noir de Florette, this one is the deeper, darker, very slightly more grown up version. It's awesome. And a great peek into all that's new and different... and wild... from the land down under.

Sappy, forrest fruits of red and dark berries, tea leaves, white pepper and earth. Slight grip, juicy and flows effortless down the gob.

Beautiful aromas that go for days. Great fruit. Black berry, plum, mushroom. Very balanced but the wildman name is fitting in a way. Delicious natural wine.

Weird, funky, amazing. Consistency of hard cider but a delicious melding of red/white grapes happening. One of the best orange wines I've tasted.
