Mark Kozned wine journey started in 1998 when he decided that he wanted a new life (that’s when Nova Vita (yes it means new life) was born) sitting with Joanne in a little French café in London. After being away from Australia for 7 years he gave up his international investment banking career to pursue his real passion – growing grapes and making wine (and drinking truckloads of it!). Twenty years of grape growing and 10 vintages later at Tintara and Revenir and an on-and-off again Masters of Viticulture and Oenology at Adelaide University (yes its still only 80% complete) and he is still restless. Wine making philosophy – let the grapes do the talking. This includes: • sustainable practices in the vineyard are key - he keeps experimenting with organic practices but the terroir makes it difficult • making wines that are balanced and elegant and readily smashable. He believes in getting back to basics and letting the grapes do the talking not winemaking gobbledygook – hopefully this produces wines that are fuller and scrumptious! • where possible using natural yeast (wild ferment) and certainly no animal products. • going on a natural wine tangent to have some more fun, edginess and risk with Project K Wines he loves to make – his latest focus is on the natural field-blend wine project called Project K where a huge amount of risk with uncertain outcomes has produced amazing wines. His favourite is The SPN - a co-fermented Shiraz/Pinot field blend.
