About The Wine

This is the first vintage Vaughn has been able to release a singular wine made from the Gamay he and his wife Linda planted on their gorgeous Tasmanian vineyard.

For its first run, with not much juice to play with, Vaughn has put together a beautiful, bright and fragrant, early drinking red which is absolutely delightful.

Gamay is becoming more and more popular these days, Vaughn was ahead of the curve to plant it on his 'close-planted' block and his foresight is now paying off.

Only 133 dozen made.

About Sinapius

Sinapius is a premium boutique Tasmanian winery started by two young, passionate winemakers.

The couple, Vaughn Dell & Linda Morice, purchased the site when they were only 24-years-old and chose to plant their vines in the Burgundian fashion opting for high-density planting and low yielding crops.

Their wines are of extremely high quality, made in small amounts and every year are more highly sort after by collectors.

Critic Reviews

"The wine opens with an intensely perfumed nose, showing wild strawberry and redcurrants with hints of violets and wild fennel. Medium bodied, the palate is sweet’n’silky, full of juicy red fruits, with fine/chalky tannins. This wine has great length and persistence, with a wonderful fine spice and lively acidity to finish." - Sinapius
