Levrier Wines by Jo Irvine

South Australia | Barossa Valley

Our Review

‘Levrier’ is French for greyhound, and Jo Irvine has looked after retired racing greyhounds for 20 years. Jo is also enjoying a second lease on life. At 35, she gave up her nursing career, working vintages in the US whilst earning her viticulture and oenology degree before coming home to start a consulting business and make wines for her father, Jim Irvine, at Irvine Wines. Jim sold that business in ’14, after which Jo went out on her own, releasing the first wines under the Levrier label in ’16. The wines she makes on her own account are named for famous racing greyhounds: Sorter, Argos, Anubis and Peritas. Levrier’s cellar door is also distinctly dog friendly, with a fenced dog park for visiting hounds, and resident wine greyhounds Georgie and Daphne often onsite. -HALLIDAY TEAM
