Rest in Peace Primo Grilli, 1934 - 2016
I am saddened to share with you the passing of Joe's father, Primo Grilli. From humble beginnings in Italy's Le Marche region, Primo set off on a great adventure to build a new life in Australia. His second great act of optimism was investing all he had in a winery for his 19 year old son Joe, who was studying wine making at Roseworthy College. From the company he started as a grape grower, Primo lived to see bottles of wine bearing his name spread across Australia and around the world - an astonishing legacy.
I hope that you will join us in raising a glass to the man who made Primo Estate possible and celebrating a life well lived.

JOSEPH Sparkling Red Returns!
The newly bottled 2016 degorgement of NV JOSEPH Sparkling Red has finally arrived, months after we sold out of the previous bottling.
The last bottling of our iconic JOSEPH Sparkling Red was awarded 96 points and second spot in the whole of Australia in Tyson Stelzer's 2016 Australian Sparkling Wine Report:
'The latest disgorgement of this iconic sparkling red captures all the mystery and the theatrics of a blend of every vintage since the late eighties and some from the early sixties and seventies. McLaren Vale shiraz brings its vibrant, full purple hue and its black fruit depth, while cabernet and merlot contribute their bright blackcurrant crunch and fine tannin grip. The finish explodes into an endless panoply of dark chocolate, black olives, exotic spice, dried fruits and coal dust. Masterful.' - Tyson Stelzer, May 2016

NEW 2016 Primo Estate Merlesco Merlot Has Arrived!
Merlesco is a deliciously uncomplicated, juicy and fresh ‘little Merlot’. Bursting with the aromas for fresh blackberry, blueberry and cherry fruit; this is a wine to be drunk young and fresh, the perfect summer red. Winemaker Joe Grilli recommends Merlesco is best served out of tumblers with an alfresco table of antipasto, pizza or pasta.

The 2016 JOSEPH First Run Extra Virgin Olive Oil is Here!
Heralding the start of the new season, the 2016 JOSEPH First Run Extra Virgin Olive Oil is the first and freshest oil to be released from an outstanding growing season. As the name suggests, this Australian gourmet icon is the very first run of oil from the harvest’s first crop. The oil yield per tonne is very low but the olive fruit characters are at their strongest.
2016 marks Joe Grilli's 27th harvest of JOSEPH Extra Virgin Olive Oil
