GREG CLACK & KATE HORSTMANN
Adelaide Hills Gamay from Woodside, 70% whole bunch with 21 days carbonic followed by 7 days open fermentation, balance a combination of whole bunch opens and destemmed opens - pressed straight to 500L French oak puncheons for 4 months maturation before bottling.
Bright, spicy, raspberrry coulis fruit, a touch of pepper spice and a lilting herbal hit. Super crunchy, bursting wtih red fruits, wild strawberry, plum and everything else smashed into a delectable fruit compote. Finishes with a little earthy, bracken that lends a something a little more serious to the palate without ever straying to far from the super-easy drinking it is. Yum.
Greg Clack and Kate Horstmann launched XO Wine Co. in 2017, focusing on small-batch parcels that highlight bright fruit and a true sense of place. Their winemaking emphasizes subtle complexity through thoughtful fermentation and maturation, allowing each varietal to express its character naturally. Over the years, the XO range has expanded, showcasing the strengths of both the Adelaide Hills and McLaren Vale. Today, the portfolio spans shiraz, grenache, pinot noir, chardonnay, sauvignon blanc, and riesling, alongside emerging stars like nebbiolo, gamay, barbera, fiano, tempranillo, and the more esoteric cortese, complemented by a lightly skinsy pinot gris and a chillable red blend of red varieties.
This is far from the first time we have included wines from XO in the monthly packs and there is a reason why - they are well made, they taste delicious and they are great value!
