Whence Hutton Vale»
Samuel Smith migrated from Dorset England to Angaston in the colony of South Australia circa 1847, he took up work as a gardener with George Fife Angas, the virtual founder of the colony. In 1849, Smith bought thirty acres and planted vines by moonlight, the first ever vintages of Yalumba. One of his most enduring legacies were some unique clones of Shiraz, which were ultimately sown to the illustrious Mount Edelstone vineyard in 1912. Angas's great grandchild Ron Angas acquired cuttings from the Edelstone site and migrated the precious plantings to his pastures at Hutton Vale. The land remains in family hands, a graze for flocks of some highly fortunate lamb. In between the paddocks, blocks of Sam Smith's experimental vines yield a harvest of the most spectacular Shiraz to be found in.. The return of rootstock to garden of eden»

T Gallant Imogen Pinot Gris CONFIRM VINTAGE

Pinot Gris Grigio Mornington Victoria
Kevin McCarthy and Kathleen Quealy pioneered the development of Pinot Grigio and Pinot Gris wines on the Mornington Peninsula in the late 1980s. Pinot Grigio and Gris are the same grape, how they are grown and handled throughout the vinification determines their caste into the French or Italianate styling. T'Gallant are well versed at both, the maestros of Mornington. Italian have a tendency to pick grapes earlier for a racy, savoury style. The French wait for riper flavours, developing richer palates that are complex, fuller and fatter.

T'Gallant's style is expressive of Mornington, deft of handling and highly polished, devout in viticulture and the purity of fruit. Each batch of Pinot Gris is assessed regularly on its journey to bottle, integrity of the wine is paramount. Sometimes the destiny of an individual block has been planned many years in advance. Juices are pressed right out with no fining. Vineyard parcels are all kept separate as a wild ferment ensues without the introduction of any yeasts. Natural warm fermentations achieve lively fruit character and gossamer yeast aromas. Upon completion, parcels are assembled and the finished wine bottled unfiltered nor fined. Time spent on sedimentery lees adds texture and complexity.
Pale gold colour. A generous and weighty Pinot Gris, potent and true to style. The nose is ripe and very complex with floral notes and touches of tropical fruit. Honey and pears, dusty and spicy aromas precede a long, tangy, lemony palate, soft with nut and nougat character. A wine of succulence, generous with palate weight and richness.
