The fruit comes from Kangaroo Ground in the Yarra Valley, a site that suits the variety's preference for cooler conditions and lighter soils. Hall has approached it much the same way he makes his Pinot — straightforward, unfussy winemaking that puts the fruit first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDescription\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10.0pt;\"\u003eHalf the fruit was kept as whole bunches with the rest destemmed, before maturation in older large-format barrels. The approach keeps things fresh and aromatic without over-extracting or adding unnecessary oak character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10.0pt;\"\u003eIt's a bright, lively red: light on its feet, fragrant, with fine tannins that give it enough grip and focus to feel complete at the table. There's energy and a lovely freshness to it, and it's the kind of wine that works equally well slightly chilled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10.0pt;\"\u003eOne of the better young Gamays around, and superb value once again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWinemaker's Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10.0pt;\"\u003eThis is Rob Hall's first release of Gamay. The fruit is sourced from Kangaroo Ground, and the winemaking is kept fairly simple — mostly de-stemmed fruit, made the way he makes Pinot Noir, and matured in older 500L barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCritic Reviews\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10.0pt;\"\u003eThe Halliday Wine Companion praised the wine's bright red cherry, raspberry, and rose aromatics with a lift of aromatic spice. They noted its medium body fills out nicely on the mid-palate, with fine, well-judged tannins giving it structure and focus — calling it a delicious wine to enjoy now and over the next two to three years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoListParagraph\" style=\"margin-left: .5in;
