Gentle Folk Single Vineyard Release
|
|
|
|
From academic beginnings, holding a PhD inmarine science, Gareth Belton of Gentle Folk Wineshas traded a life in the lab for one amongst the vines in the Adelaide Hills. Shying away from overly complicated winemaking techniques and with a deft touch, Gareth crafts energetic wines that speak of vintage and place. This philosophy of simplicity gained him recognition in 2014 as an award finalist for Young Gun of Wine, only a year after his first commercial release in 2013.
Considering all that could have possibly gone wrong in 2020, grape growing conditions in Gareth's particular part of the Adelaide Hills were pretty ideal. They got lucky with the winds, which mostly blew the smoke away from their vineyards. The ripening season was warm with cooler nights, and rain fell at more or less the right time, resulting in a fabulous collection of wines.

2020 Ashton Chardonnay
Usually $64 - Special Offer $58
Our third release from this little patch of goodness where the aspect and heavy clay soils result in a wine with boldness and spiciness. There are beautiful stone fruit characters and a punching acid line from the 2020 season.

2020 Scary Gully Pinot Noir
Usually $64 - Special Offer $58
The Scary Gully vineyard is one of the highest and oldest in the Adelaide Hills. The 2020 growing season wasn't without its challenges but ripening was mild and even; with the resulting wine being more balanced and poised than previous years.

2020 Piccadilly Pinot Noir
Usually $64 - Special Offer $58
Our first year working with this site just below Mount Lofty and the future looks bright! The wine is tightly coiled upon opening with bright acidity and after a quick swirl in the glass, fresh cherriesand red currants leap out at you.

2020 Little Creek Pinot Noir
Usually $64 - Special Offer $58
This has to be one of the most beautiful vineyards in the Adelaide Hills. It's close planted, and has been unirrigated for over 20 years. The season's low rainfall and cool ripening has resulted in a savoury wine with immense power and perfume.
