Sourced from the famous Malakoff Vineyard in western Victoria's Pyrenees, this light, bright and adventurous minimal intervention red throws a whole different shade to what Aussie Syrah/Shiraz should taste like. Inspired by the bright reds of the Loire in France, this is a juicy and purple-fruited wine with such energy and life, carried along with a whole spice cabinet of Pyrenees flavour and finishing with life-affirming tannins.

After a five-year-long apprenticeship working in Australia and France at the likes of Toolangi Vineyards, Mount Mary Vineyard, Little Reddie, Place of Changing Winds, Alice & Olivier De Moor, winemaker Tim has given birth to his wine label baby, Lo Havoc. As Tim says, his fine wine internship has helped develop a 'detailed appreciation for the necessity of good, honest and ethical farming and sustainability across all aspects of production', now turned into delicious lo-fi wines under this solo project. Drawing on fruit from across his native Victorian wine regions, you can expect the Lo Havoc wines to be bright, light, approachable, minimal intervention styles of detail and, above all else, fun.
