Description

One of the more recent additions to the Jamsheed range of wines; Apricity (The warmth of the winter sun), are all about contemporary winemaking with a range of grapes from across Victoria.

When it comes to alternate varietal grapes in Victoria, the place to find them is the Chalmers vineyard in Heathcote, where Gary has ventured for this wine. Quite a savoury white wine, not so much fruit driven, rather full of nutty goodness. Fuller bodied that you might normally see from Pecorino, the wine has great texture, with a nice chewy phenolic structure to it.

Gary Mills always seems to be at the forefront of what is new and exciting in the Australian wine scene, and these Apricity wines are just another example of that.

88 Points - "Frisky and bright, an almost tonic water character here, marzipan, hazelnut, a bit of walnut paste and some chewy tannin in the mix. Very very savoury white wine. Lovely character, interesting and dense. Exotic." - Mike Bennie (The Wine Front)

Grown by Chalmers vineyard in Heathcote, the Apricity Pecorino was direct pressed to barrel for fermentation in old french oak and left on lees for 6 months. Bottled unfiltered and unfined with minimal added sulphites.

Jamsheed

Gary Mills' Jamsheed wines are amongst the most exciting in the country: thrilling, authentic wines packed with personality.

With a specific focus on the regional differences in Victorian Syrah for his Jamsheed range, Gary has always been ahead of the curve in creating minimal intervention wines that naturally convey the characteristics of their respective vineyards.

On top of his much sought-after Syrahs, Gary produces excellent textural white wines from varieties including Riesling and Roussanne, and is never afraid to innovate with his fun and quirky 'Harem' label.

Jamie Goode called him “the new face of Australian wine”. Wild, electric and always delicious, Jamsheed is one of the Victoria’s most compelling producers.

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
