Description

For this smashable little red, winemaker Jo Marsh combines Shiraz, Tempranillo, and Refosco and to make something slurpy and juicy which you can drink any night of the week.

The Shiraz and Tempranillo gives you some lovely richness and smooth tannin as well as juiciness, the Refosco lends bright aromatics and sweet red berried fruit, depth and body. 

It's the perfect mid-week quaffer to slosh into tumblers and watch a movie with a cheese plate.

"Certainly packs a lot of fruit flavour into a small pricepoint... So much to like here."
- Jeni Port (Halliday Wine Companion)

89 points - "A blend of shiraz, tempranillo and refosco made with punchy, early drinking in mind. Certainly packs a lot of fruit flavour into a small pricepoint. Cherry, plum, raspberry and heady spice in the vein of red licorice and anise run fast across the tongue, dispensing a fruit fuelled energy matched by lively acidity. So much to like here." - Jeni Port (Halliday Wine Companion)

    Light, but with flavour

    A light red, perfect with a BBQ meal. Great nose, great flavour but not so complex that you're drowning in notes.

Billy Button

Billy Button is the charming Alpine Valleys based project of ubertalented winemaker Jo Marsh, now helped by her winemaker husband Glenn James and young winemaker Alex Phillips.

Billy Button focuses primarily on producing small batches of alternative varieties from good local growers in their small patch of Victoria. The team explores varieties that are rarely seen in the Australian landscape - you can find anything from Schioppettino to Verduzzo in this eclectic range.

Jo's gentle touch in the winery makes for beautifully balanced wines that show great texture and vibrancy. The Billy Button range is a little gem of North East Victoria. It's one of the more unique wine ranges in the country and the perfect place to begin your exploration of alternative varieties.
