Description

The 2024 Hesketh Woodside Gamay is a vibrant cool-climate red sourced from a vineyard in Woodside in the Adelaide Hills. The nose is highly aromatic, showing violet, blueberry and crimson cherry with dried leafy spice and subtle earthy notes. The wine received 95 points and Gold at the 2024 Adelaide Hills Wine Show.

On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with juicy red fruit, crunchy cranberry acidity and fine, glossy tannins. Whole-berry fermentation with a portion of whole bunches brings aromatic lift and savoury detail, followed by six months in seasoned oak. The finish is fresh, spicy and persistent.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for Gamay drinkers who enjoy fragrant, lighter-bodied reds with bright acidity and gentle tannins. Enjoy now or cellar through around 2030. Pair with roast chicken, grilled pork, charcuterie, mushroom dishes, salmon or wood-fired pizza.

About the region

South Australia · Adelaide Hills

South Australia grows more wine than any other Australian state, and its subregions behave almost like separate countries. Barossa and Eden Valley give Shiraz and Riesling, McLaren Vale leans to Grenache, Clare Valley to dry Riesling, Adelaide Hills to Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, and Coonawarra to Cabernet on red terra rossa soil. Strict quarantine has kept phylloxera out, so some vineyards still work vines planted in the nineteenth century.
