About the wine
A beautiful brooding Pinot
- The 2018 vintage of this Top Shelf beauty demanded perfect timing, and Kevin's team have captured the premium fruit like lighting in a bottle. Their approach to making Pinot Noir is very simple; small batch, hands on, focusing on letting the fruit sing.
- This is a perfectly poised Pinot Noir; seductive and delicate yet humming with an inherent power. The wine will become entirely different after cellaring, as the primary fruit evolves into dense floral notes with leather and cigar in the background.
- Prepare for a dense and textural palate, preceded by wonderful ripe perfumes of framboise and violets. Perfect to share with friends over a meal, but if you're hard pressed to share this tasty drop then why not double it up in your basket, especially at this incredible Angel price!

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.
