Australian Gamay

Post by Rawshack »

Apart from a couple of solid examples I know such as Sorrenberg and Pfieffer, can anyone recommend me a good Australian Gamay? Something simple, that can be lightly chilled?

Thanks in advance

Eldridge Estate great drop. Very popular and gets sold out quickly.

Had the Pfeiffer a few times. I reckon its their best wine.
Sandy Wahgunyah soil and the winemaking approach lead to making great Beaujolais styles.
Nice.

Thanks to everyone who responded

I'd love to give the Eldridge a go, but it might be a bit cost prohibative for the dinner I'm organising

The Pfieffer is a cracker for $16-18 and it's a shame it doesn't have greater exposure.
