About Karatta
Karatta Wines is owned by David & Peg Woods, wine lovers who established their farm, Griffin Pastoral Company, in 1975. Today, they strive to craft wines that encapsulate their unique piece of ancient seabed soils, maritime winds, and cool temperatures. Their Robe vineyards are truly exceptional examples of Australian terroir located in Robe, a maritime sub-region of the Limestone Coast, half-way between Adelaide and Melbourne.
They make estate-grown wines and are committed to the production of ready to drink, age-worthy
wines that authentically reflect the maritime climate characterized by lithe, elegant reds and crisp, snappy whites.
Alice Davidson is the winemaker and is brimming with passion and vigor, with winemaking experience from McLaren Vale to Canada’s Oakanagen Valley. “Wineries are like a big kitchen and I love cooking,” she says, “You feel like you’re cooking recipes when you’re making wines. Winemaking has so much more to offer in that it’s very scientific. There’s the connection to the earth and where the grapes are grown and climate. Then there’s the creative side, the cooking.”
Recently we hosted our friends littlepeacockimports who were over from the USA visiting their Australian suppliers 🍷
From a winery tour, drinking Tiny Star on the beach, eating local seafood from skyseafoodsrobe - Even a ride around the bay on a professional cray boat. We wanted them to really live and experience our home of Robe 🦞🛥️
We’ve been working with the New York based team for 5 years now so it’s been a long time coming 🇺🇸
Can’t wait to show all the pics but we’ll start at the start 🍇

Think of this as a dry Australian Lambrusco. karattawines juicy sparkling dry red that’s fruity with blueberries and cherries, with notes of licorice, spices, and of course fizz. Super interesting and unlike anything I’ve had before. I bought one bottle and went back for more. Shared it with my mom, who loves Shiraz but is not at all a bubbly drinker, and she loved it.
🍷: 75% Shiraz + 25% Cabernet Sauvignon
🗺️: Robe, Limestone Coast, Western Australia

“Fence Lines” 2024
Wire, Muslin, cotton, iris leaf
Across our vast country, fence lines stretch as far as the eye can see, joining neighbours and communities together. These linear structures connect rural people as they go about their everyday lives, collectively battling the many obstacles that come their way.
These three vessels represent the different size communities in the Limestone Coast: all different, yet the same.
Purposefully constructed with wire, muslin fabric, and handmade twine made from the plants of my garden in the Limestone Coast, as well as my Nan’s heirloom cotton, which form the connecting stiches which link together our past, present and future.

Thanks to everyone who came out tonight to thewiseolddog for our exploration of Australian wines and book club convo. I think we all agreed that this was a book we wouldn’t have picked up or come across if it hadn’t been shared with me at some point, and there was so much we learned and discussed!
Check back tomorrow for the July link and save the slushy date…7/11!
