About the wine
Out of this world
- There is nothing on this earth like Nebbiolo, and it shines out of this great Pyrenees vineyard, in what is, across Victoria, an amazing vintage. You won't want to miss this!
- Powerful, fully ripe dark red fruits; plum, raspberry, currant. Glorious subtle summer florals, with a background of sun warmed earth. This is the fascinating ability of Nebbiolo to capture the site and season so boldly.
- Profound, brooding tannin dominates a textural extravaganza. The powerful fruit swoops through the entire palate, with each element building on the other to a crescendo.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Kevin McCarthy
- Kevin's award-winning winemaking career spans decades and his success is largely thanks to his silky talents and his steely courage. Widely recognised as the founding father of Pinot Gris/Grigio in Australia, Kevin McCarthy is, and always has been, a rebel - a deadset heretic.
- Taught by the masters in Alsace, France and Collio, Italy, he's helped change the Australian wine landscape as we know it. Kevin was encouraged by his mentors to take risks, experiment and ignore fear. As a result, his first venture many years ago, the famous T’Gallant winery put the Mornington Peninsula wine region firmly on the map. It was there, in 1993, they released their first Pinot Grigio and the Aussie Pinot G revolution was underway!
- Liberated by Angels in 2013, Kevin continues along the path less travelled, inspired by winemaking experiences around the globe. For the past twenty years he's travelled Victoria and South Australia looking for special vineyards and uses premium fruit from the Mildura region as well as the Mornington Peninsula in his fabuous wines.
