About the wine
Beautiful example of an Aussie grown Fiano
- Fiano at this price is practically unheard of. Especially when you consider the pedigree of the winemaker and the quality of the grapes - the vines have been tended with the greatest respect.
- Kevin has been typically hands-off with the winemaking process, preferring to intervene as little as possible and let the grapes do the talking! The result is a truly refreshing drop that’s equally at home with food as it is as an aperitif.
- Its funky floral elements and zippy finish make it very interesting little drop. Try it with a pungent cheese or salted cod. It's packed with wonderful fruit presence whilst still remaining an elegant and restrained wine.

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.
