The Gilbert family dates back to Australia since 1839, and as winemakers since 1847. In 2004 the father and son team, Simon and Will, began Gilbert Family Wines. Since then, they are hand- producing wines from Mudgee and Orange under the ethos of “wise winemaking with fresh appeal.”
50% Riesling, 26% Pinot Gris, 24% Gewürztraminer. 3⁄4 of the Riesling was fermented cool in stainless steel.
