We are Rob and Kate Burley and since 2019 we have been organically farming a picturesque 5.5 Hectare vineyard in Nelson, planted with Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris & Riesling.
Luta wines are a recent addition to our Unkel Wines range and are wines made from a selection of barrels that we believe tell the story of the unique Moutere clays and the organic vineyards in which these vines are farmed. These are aged for longer at every step, from barrel to tank and again in the bottle, prior to release.
‘Luta’ - derived from Lutum, the Latin word for clay - pays reference to the Moutere clays where the grapes are grown.
We are so fortunate to farm in such a beautiful area and the resulting wines are something we are extremely humbled to have produced from land that we are deeply
Tasmania’s specialties are Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, forming the foundation of its world-class still and sparkling wines. Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, and Pinot Gris also thrive here, showcasing purity, freshness, and mineral precision. Producing less than 1% of Australia’s total wine volume yet commanding a premium share of value, Tasmania has become synonymous with craftsmanship, sustainability, and cool-climate excellence—making it a jewel in Australia’s winemaking landscape.
