Winemaking:

Tempranillo and Grenache have been used for their textural qualities in making this wine. The pale colour results from minimal contact of the juice with its red skins. Free run juice was run off without pressing then cold settled before racking and cool fermenting with an aromatic yeast. Lees contact after fermentation has promoted mouthfeel, allowing a dry elegant style to be produced

Background:

"Gida" is the name to which Aglaia Hamilton, Richard Hamilton's mother, was most commonly known. Gida became a vineyard owner in McLaren Vale in 1949 and was a director of the Albury "Border Morning Mail' from 1957-1994

Vintage Conditions:

2023 provided a cool season allowing slow ripening with moderate sugar levels, providing an elegant version of the McLaren Vale style. Winter rains provided the vines with good soil moisture for spring growth. Cool and windy conditions at flowering reduced fruitfulness and the resulting yields were much lower than average. Although December to February period was dry, temperatures were moderate, with no extremes. Cool conditions continued through March delaying harvest. The vintage produced fine styles of wine with great elegance and finesse.
