Our Review
Named for the roses dotting the property Theodora and George Koutouzis have farmed since the '70s. Originally from Greece, they met in Australia, raised a family of 4 and the Berri farm, rich with rows of orchards of apricots, pears and plums, and grapevines. Their son John is behind the Sixty Eight Roses wine label, which began in earnest in '20 with the inaugural release of a '19 syrah off vines planted by his parents, 48 years ago. He’s dreaming big. Plantings of alternative varieties are underway and certified organics is part of the story. -JANE FAULKNER
