Description

The Screaming Betty Vermentino is an absolute ripper if you're looking for a great value zippy and flavourful white.

Super bright, upfront acidity – lemon lime tang – is what pops from the glass, instantly putting you in the thirst quenching zone. The mid-palate is where the texture and length comes in, nashi pear and green apple pops against orange peel breadth and juicy, creamy mouthfeel.

The acid ties it all together and gives length, enhanced by the classic Vermentino briney, sea spray haze. If you're bored of Sauvignon Blanc, switch it up with this.

"It’s hard to look past vermentino if you’re prospecting for a salty white. This fits the brief. Nashi pear, lemon zest, tart green apple; it’s super fresh and energising. There's good palate weight here. Creamy with great texture and flow, varietally-true sea spray notes thread a mineral line through citrus generosity. This is tipple for the back deck. Good one."
- Katrina Butler (Halliday Wine Companion)

Ripe green apple and that classic sort of walnut savouriness up front, this years interpretation has that fuzzy, acid driven, salty mouth feel amped right up. Bags of flavour - preserved lemon, briney and savoury, with a tropical, pineapple syrup background. Made for summer BBQ – grilled fish and oregano bread please.

Wild fermented in stainless steel, the wine also spent 6 weeks on fine lees, stirred twice weekly, giving it a beautiful, textural edge not often found in Australian Vermentino’s – our reference point is Sardinia and Liguria.

Delinquente

Con-Greg Grigoriou makes interesting yet smashable wines from some unique fruit growing in the Riverlands.

Organically farmed in one of Australia's 'engine room' regions, these warm-climate alternative varieties offer a much more sustainable long-term proposition for our hotter, drier regions. Greg is right at the front of the pack of Australian producers championing these varieties.

His wines are all about fun times and chilled vibes. Bright, energetic and full of personality, these wines offer a great entry point for people looking to explore emerging varieties at a great price.

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.
