Description

Gareth and Rainbo Belton from Gentle Folk have been an inspiring ingredient of the 'progressive wine' movement surrounding the Adelaide Hills. With a care for the planet, informed by their marine science background, the Beltons have committed to farming organically and employ some biodynamic practices. Gradually acquiring small plots in the region since 2013, Gentle Folk has grown their own grapes, a necessary step in Gareth's mind, to establish a true connection to the region. Bridging the gap between natural and traditional wine aesthetics they are now amongst the most in-demand in Australian wine. 

Arguably the coolest vineyard in the Adelaide Hills, sitting on the top ridge of Ashton, the Monomeith Pinot Noir benefits from the elevation and the beneficial orientation. The result is a wine of great depth and complexity displaying the classic aromas of a great Pinot Noir. An array of fruit, stalk and spice are complemented by gentle tannins. 

The grapes undergo 20% whole cluster open top fermentation for two to three weeks followed by 10 months in oak, 20% new, before racking to tank for three months and bottled.
