James Halliday

“Mature estate vines, hand-picked, whole-bunch pressed, barrel-fermented with full solids included, mlf blocked. A wine of striking purity and focus, minerally acidity the framework on which to display the classic ultra-cool grown fruit flavours with pink grapefruit and white peach leading the way. A long future.”

Taste Description

Taste Description

Nose

Aromas of spiced pear, lemon zest and white flowers combined with complex flinty notes.

Flavours and Palate

Long and pure, the palate shows fresh pear and citrus flavours combined with subtle toasty oak and crisp, mineral acidity. A delicate, yet powerful wine.

Viticulture Vintage & Winemaking

Viticulture Vintage & Winemaking

Henty, Victoria

Henty is one of the coolest wine regions of Australia but is protected by a maritime influence. Famed for being the home of cool climate viticulture and the iconic Drumborg vineyard, Henty is renowned for its Rieslings, Chardonnays and Sparklings.

Vintage Conditions

A cool winter with good early rainfall was followed by warm, dry spring conditions, resulting in excellent fruit set. Summer temperatures were average to warm, with persistent fine conditions and little rain, resulting in above-average yields and exceptional quality.

Adam Carnaby - Seppelt Winemaker

Adam proudly dons two winemaking hats, creating outstanding cool climate wines from across Victoria: in 2011 he commenced as Seppelt Winemaker and in 2016 added the responsibilities of being Winemaker for T’Gallant. He relishes the challenge of being in charge of two great Australian wine producers – Seppelt with its 165 year history and focus on cool climate sparkling, Shiraz, Chardonnay and Riesling from the Grampians, Heathcote and Henty regions; and the more eccentric T’Gallant, pioneers of Pinot Grigio and Gris in Australia based in the Mornington Peninsula.
