Gilbert Rouge 2022 75cl

Tasting Note

A delicious soft, aromatic, silky medium-bodied red with fragrant mulberry and damson aromas accented with half a twist of black pepper. A wonderful red which will work well both slightly chilled or at room temperature.

Producer

Gilbert Family Wines have their roots in the Eden Valley of South Australia, where Joseph Gilbert was one of the first to plant grapes. They still make delicious Rieslings there under the Gilbert + Gilbert label. Now, however, the majority of their wines come from the fashionable regions of Orange and Mudgee in New South Wales. Simon Gilbert established the winery in 2004 after working for more than two decades as winemaker for some of the top producers in the area. Simon and his son, Will, specialise in cool climate wines with a common thread of elegance, purity and structure This winery is right at the front of Australia's new wave, making a wide range of wines which balance traditional styles and techniques with the more experimental.
