23.01.2022 The first wine from our 2020 vintage has been released Rebel Rebel Montepulciano. alphaboxdice.com/shop/rebel-rebel Like in previous years, Rebel Rebel is a Nouveaux stylr single vineyard wine from Langhorne Creek, however, a freak weather pattern during growing season meant the majority of berries were left unfertilised. This meant smaller berries and less seeds, leading to less astringent tannins and a greater concentration of flavour. ... In AB&D Winemaker Sam Berketa's opinion, this is the best Rebel yet, yet not one that we'll easily be able to replicate. Shop online with free shipping Australia-wide.

19.01.2022 "Book a weekend tasting at the funky Alpha Box & Dice, where the artfully antiquated cellar door is the perfect spot for a cheese plate."

Head online to alphaboxdice.com/bookings to book in for weekends up until Sunday November 22!

19.01.2022 The Dead Winemakers Society 2018 Muscat took home the Wine Storyteller's Trophy in the McLaren Vale Wine Show! The trophy went to the wine that told the best story in the glass, with the judge commenting our DWS White "sparked imagination, hit the right notes and made me want more, more, more." Reflecting on the award, AB&D Head Winemaker Sam Berketa said: "Skin fermented whites/amber/orange wines are my go-to as they're always interesting, sometimes challenging and often del...icious. This wine has been my little love child, born from my experiences through Italy a few years back. It's great to see a wine of this style awarded a trophy and I hope this is a trend that carries forth through more wine shows!" Dead Winemakers Society Muscat is available from alphaboxdice.com with free shipping Australia-wide and will be back on tasting at Cellar Door from this weekend.

13.01.2022 In line with the Premier's direction for a six day lockdown and following clarification from Consumer and Business Services this morning, we will be closed for the following six days and hope to reopen as soon as we can. This includes both the Cellar Door and Online Store operations, as only physical bottle shops are designated as 'essential', along with critical vineyard operations and maintenance. If you have a booking for this weekend for Cellar Door, your refund has alrea...dy been processed. We hope to reopen and honour all bookings for Saturday November 28 onwards unless directed otherwise. All office and administration will continue from home and we do not anticipate a disruption to service for our wholesale customers interstate. In the interest of following the intentions of the lockdown, we will be processing and sending all online orders after we reopen from Wednesday November 25. We will still be accepting orders on alphaboxdice.com, but please be patient as shipping will be delayed until we can safely reopen. If you have any concerns or queries, please contact via email at [email protected] Thank you for your patience and thank you to all South Australians for following what we hope will be a brief yet effective lockdown. Stay safe, keep well and see you soon. AB&D alphaboxdice.com

12.01.2022 Alpha Box & Dice are featured on page 2 of today’s The Australian in an article discussing how Australian wine exports have (favorably) weathered the pandemic. We’ve recently sent wine to the UK, South Korea, Malaysia and Singapore. It took very little convincing to get Head Winemaker Sam Berketa in front of the camera... Roy Van Der Vegt
