Il Cattivo

Il Cativo is a legend. A lovable one that doesn't take life too seriously and whose mantra is to live life with a cheeky grin. And this comes with wine making also - a playful expression is not only encouraged, it's expected. 

But don't think that means they aren't passionate about wine. Il Cativo loves to please and this means producing wines that are expressive of their variety and have lots of character. This includes a method of winemaking that relies on minimal filtering and short maceration times for reds - making them fun and bright.

Picturesque Port Elliot is an hour South of Adelaide and is the birthplace of Il Cativo. There, you will find his psudo Italian roots amongst a small vineyard that specialises in Fiano and Montepulciano. These wines are fun and exciting and they never last long on the Regions shelves.

    • Il Cattivo Tempranillo 2022 - 6 Pack

      Picture Il Cattivo greedily eating crunchy crocchette and fried squid with a glass of tempranillo in hand. Slurpy, savory, smashable. Think morello cherry, loganberry, quince jelly all knitted together with that tarty, sweet sour taste of pomegranate. Il Cattivo plays his briscola cards close to his chest but we can...

      Even Il Cattivo happily shows off his feminine side now and again. Beautifully aromatic, think fairy floss, turkish delight and cranberries. The palate is bone dry but has great fruit weight and length. Grapes are carefully sourced from in and around Mclaren Vale where Il Cattivo was inspired by the...
