- TASTING NOTE: This Gamay is brimming with freshness and drinkability. It's juicy, energetic, and packed with whole-bunch crunch. Bright red berries, spice, and a hint of wild herbs lead the way, with plush fruit balanced by fine, savoury tannins. It’s a little wild and a joyful, easy to drink Gamay.
- ABOUT THE WINE: Sourced from Dixon’s Creek, whole-bunch fermentation with a hit of carbonic maceration.
- ABOUT THE PRODUCER: German-born, enigmatic winemaker Timo Mayer is one of the great characters of the Yarra Valley. The words bombastic, charismatic and wild are as much applicable to the man as his wines. From his close-planted Yarra Valley vineyard, evocatively named 'Bloody Hill', Timo carves out some astounding wines made with low levels of new oak and minimal additions. The signature of Timo's winemaking style is his penchant for whole-bunch ferment. His wines have an ethereal quality, firm tannins and impeccable structure. These are compelling and extremely limited wines that tell a unique story of the Yarra Valley.
