The Wine

Dry Renzano is a delicious Vermouth made from botanicals we foraged in our local area. Fennel flower is the star alongside many others.

Renzano, our COVID project. Made in conjunction with our good friend Evan Stroeve, a great bloke and an even better bar tender. He is currently running Re, one of Sydney’s most exciting new bars. The dry Renzano was very much inspired by Diego Bonetto (aka The Weedy One) who is a champion of the gastronomic and medicinal applications of many commonly occurring plants that most people would call weeds. We foraged a number of the ingredients from the Central West such as wild fennel flower, lemon scented tea tree, some were supplied by Diegos foraging around Sydney- mugwort, seablite and rock samphire and the rest came from our garden- coriander seed, seville orange and the sweet wormwood. All in all, we’re thrilled with how the Dry Renzano has turned out. Try it in a martini, or as we like to call it- a Renzini or simply on the rocks with a twist of citrus rind.  Renzaglia

About the Wine Maker

Mark & Sandy Renzaglia took on the challenge of establishing a small vineyard in O’Connell Valley near Bathurst in 1997. There was no power, no town water, no neighbours growing grapes, just determination. Now their son Sam is on the hunt, taking Renzaglia Wines to the next level, seeking modern expressions from grapes sourced locally, and really pushing the conversation around responsible, sustainable, respectful farming in NSW. Renzaglia The family home, the Bella Luna Vineyard, and the winery are nestled in the rolling hills of the locality of O’Connell. It looks out over the O’Connell Valley to the north-east and further towards the Winburndale Nature Reserve, Mt Ovens and Mt Horrible. From this patch of dirt, the Renzaglia family have been tending to two acres of Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot since 1997. Recent plantings of Tempranillo, Grenache, Shiraz, Viognier, and Chardonnay were added to the mix in 2020, plus Sangiovese this year.
