Muscat and Gewürztraminer are buried in the qvevri at his Ballandean winery and left to sit on skins for 151 days.

Nestled close to 1000m above sea level in Queensland’s Granite Belt GI, La Petite Mort is the experimental project of head winemaker Glen Robert and his partner and Viticulturalist Robert Richter. After opting for a tree-change back in 2000 the pair purchased the Bent Road property and immediately set about planting vines. With a diverse and eclectic line-up spanning everything from classic Rhone blends to amphora aged amber wines to contemporary takes on Italian classics, at the heart of everything is the spirit of experimentation and the pursuit of rough perfection, through constant refining and honing of their skills.
