Description
Monomeith is one of the true landmarks of Adelaide Hills Pinot. Perched high on the Ashton ridge at 530 metres, this organically farmed site sits in its own sheltered, east–west valley - so the vines see both the morning and afternoon sun. That dual exposure, combined with sandstone and quartz soils, gives the fruit remarkable depth and drive, even in a cooler year.
The 2024 season delivered small yields of pristine fruit, and this wine shows it. It’s lifted and aromatic, full of red cherry, violet and gentle spice, with the kind of mineral backbone that defines this part of the Hills. There’s brightness up front, fine tannin through the mid-palate, and a long, seamless finish.
Fermented with 20% whole bunches and aged for ten months in French oak (20% new), it’s a beautifully balanced Pinot that sits comfortably among the region’s best.
The Monomeith vineyard has been part of the Gentle Folk story since day one, and in 2024 it’s produced something exceptional.
95 points
"Bright, floral and perfumed, with vivid aromas of minerals, citrus and crushed stones. The palate is delicate and refined, with fine tannins and bright acidity that lead to a mouthwatering, spicy and earthy finish. A really classy pinot with great balance. Drink or hold."
- Ryan Montgomery (James Suckling)
