Gamay is regarded as one of the lightest-bodied red grape varieties, famous for its expressive flavours and minimal tannin. When a small parcel from Woodside in the Adelaide Hills was offered to Ashton Hills, we couldn’t resist the opportunity.

Limited to six bottles per customer.

Bouquet
Dark plum, fresh raspberry and blackberry leap from the glass, along with hints of rose petal and baking spice.

Palate
The mix of fresh berries continues on the palate and is layered with subtle earthy notes, providing beautifully vibrant and complex flavours. The wine is framed with a crunchy acidity, while the use of seasoned oak and stainless steel for maturation keeps the wine tight and youthful.

Growing Conditions
The Adelaide Hills was impacted by cool weather during flowering, resulting in reduced volumes for the 2024 vintage. A wetter than average December and January made way for a warm and dry February with excellent conditions for ripening. The warmer than usual weather in February accelerated ripening and the fruit was hand harvested on 6 March 2024.
