Jumping Juice, 'Sunset' 2021

Miami Sunset in a bottle! Sunset aka fun time juice is not quite an orange wine and not quite a rose but it sits somewhere in that range. Made from a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Gewurztraminer which are both fermented on skins, along with the Shiraz but only for a short time.

The whole lot is then combined together in a witch's brew of tropical fruit punch, stalks and spice. It's a cosmic, crazy wine that you will be knocking back on the beach all summer long.

Jumpin Juice is a collaboration between long-time friends and now Gippsland-based winemakers, Patrick Sullivan and Xavier Goodridge. Both have amassed their own loyal followings for high-quality lo-fi wines made from top quality fruit. With Jumpin Juice they are free to explore parcels of fruit from all over the country - not just within their own G.I. These are fun, playful wines made with little to no additions built in a 'drink-me-now' style. Perfect picnic wines here for good times in the sun.
