Tasting notes

Adelaide Hills Pinot Noir grown at altitude and picked with full acidity intact tends to land in a bright, red-fruited register with a savory, forest-floor undercurrent. The Other Right's commitment to zero additives and zero fining or filtration means what's in the glass reflects the vineyard directly. For a producer run by a working wine scientist, the restraint here is deliberate and consistent.

See here our shipping policy.

Important Compliance Requirements

FedEx and other carriers we might occasionally use can only deliver wine to customers who are 21 years or older. Someone must be at the address to receive the package; carriers don't just drop a package and leave. They must ensure the person receiving the wine is 21 or older. Shipping to PO Boxes is not allowed.

Ship to a FedEx Store

If nobody can be at your address to sign for the package, you can have your order sent to a FedEx store instead. Enter your preferred FedEx store as the shipping address at checkout and we'll ship your order there. Once it arrives, you have 5 business days to pick it up, and you'll need to show your ID.

Re-shipping a Package

If a package is returned to us after three failed delivery attempts, we can only re-ship the wine upon payment of a re-shipping fee, to be determined based on the shipping address and number of bottles. Shipping wine is extremely expensive. We are sorry about this, but we have no other choice. Please make sure there's always someone at the address you enter as your shipping address.

If you'd like to receive a refund for a package that was returned to us after FedEx made three delivery attempts, we can do that but we must keep a $20 refund fee; FedEx charges us a lot of money for returns, unfortunately, I can't stress this enough.

Re-routing a Package

If you'd like to reroute a package after it's been shipped, we can do so for a $20 re-routing fee. We cannot re-route a package across state borders. For any change of address, please contact us as soon as possible, ideally within 1-2 days from placing the order or we cannot guarantee we'll be able to reroute or change your order's shipping address.

Canceling an Order

If you'd like to cancel an order after it's been shipped, we can do so upon payment of a small cancellation fee – the amount depends on the size of the order. Carriers charge us a lot of money to recall a package en-route.

Heat/Frost damage

We are not responsible for heat- or frost-related issues. We offer ice packs upon request, at a cost, but even so, we can't be held liable if it's 104 where you are and corks pop. Please let us know if you think that there could be heat-related issues. If we don't hear anything from you regarding weather issues before an order is shipped, or if you don't request a hold due to the weather, we are not responsible for heat/frost damage.

Placed an order. What next?

1. You will receive an order confirmation email with your order summary.*

2. As soon as your order ships from the warehouse, usually within 2-3 business days, this applies to all shipping rates, you will receive a shipping confirmation email with your tracking information. 2DAY shipping refers to shipping time; we still need 2-3 business days to prepare an order. We need to pick and pack, QA, add printed collateral, and palletize the orders.

3. Please track your package using the tracking service.

4. The carrier will attempt delivery a maximum of 3 times. After 3 delivery attempts, your package will be sent back to our warehouse.**

*Please ensure your email address is correct; otherwise, you will not receive the order and shipping confirmation emails.

**If delivery is attempted 3 times without success, or if you fail to retrieve your package from the carrier depot by the stated deadline, the shipping fee will not be refunded to the customer.

Returns Policy

If you are not satisfied with your purchase, please contact us at (424) 414-2040 or via e-mail at hello@primalwine.com between 9 am and 5 pm Pacific Standard Time, Monday through Sunday, we would like to understand and try to solve your concerns. We can offer refunds only as store credit.

Producer profile

The Other Right

The Other Right was founded in 2012 by Alex Schulkin and Galit Shachaf, based in Ashton in the Adelaide Hills. The label's name originated as a family joke about direction-giving, and also signals an alternative approach to conventional winemaking. Alex Schulkin holds a position as a wine scientist at Wine Australia, giving the project an unusual combination of technical knowledge and a philosophy that deliberately rejects interventionist winemaking.

From the 2016 vintage onward, all fruit sourced by The Other Right comes from vineyards managed under organic and sustainable farming practices. Grapes are drawn from multiple sites across the Adelaide Hills, with the exception of a wild-grown Shiraz sourced from Sellicks Hill. The producers do not own their own vineyards but work closely with growers whose sites align with their standards.

Winemaking at The Other Right is kept to the minimum necessary. No additives are used at any stage. Wines are unfined and unfiltered, and no sulfites are added. The stated goal is to allow the wine to evolve according to its natural rhythm while retaining the youth and freshness of the fruit.

Wine region

Adelaide Hills, Australia

The Adelaide Hills wine region occupies the Mount Lofty Ranges east of Adelaide, covering only areas above 300 meters in elevation. Peak vineyard sites sit between 500 and 600 meters above sea level, in and around Piccadilly Valley, Lenswood, Carey Gully, and Summertown. The region's mean January temperature of roughly 19°C is significantly cooler than the Adelaide CBD, and for every 100-meter rise in elevation the temperature drops approximately 0.5°C. Annual rainfall ranges from 650 to 1,000 millimeters, concentrated in winter and spring. Soils are predominantly grey-brown loamy sands with clay subsoils, often interspersed with shale and ironstone, varying in depth across the undulating terrain.

Adelaide Hills has two recognized sub-regions: Piccadilly Valley and Lenswood, both identified for their specific soils and microclimates. The region is primarily known for Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, and Pinot Noir, varieties that benefit from the slow ripening conditions produced by cool afternoons and cold nights. The Piccadilly Valley's ripening conditions have been compared to those of Champagne, making it a natural fit for the same grape varieties. Shiraz is also grown in warmer, lower-elevation pockets. The modern wine industry in Adelaide Hills dates to a revival in the 1970s led by producers such as Brian Croser of Petaluma.
