Description

  • French oak
  • Dark berries
  • Cracked pepper
  • Soft & rich

"The core of dark red berry fruit aromas and peppery spice sets the foundation for this wine. Raspberry and baked plums, grinds of fresh pepper and mushroom. There’s a light meaty quality as well, overall a fresh, fruity and varietal expression. Acidity and tannins work in harmony with the fruit along with a fine earthy quality. Balanced, well made and ready to imbibe from day of purchase through 2026" Cameron Douglas, MS, Jun 2023

Soft and rich with excellent structure and a soft texture. This wine is beautifully balanced with dark berry notes, fresh cracked pepper, with spice and a little wild herb on the palate.

Organically grown on the Gimblett Gravels, these vines are naturally low yielding. Tiny berries with intense flavour make this delicious Syrah expressive and vibrant.

Organic fruit was lightly crushed and fermented on skins. The grapes and must were carefully mixed each day for colour and once fermentation was complete they remained a further period on skins until the wine had gained its optimum texture before pressing. Maturation for 12 months in French oak barrels produced a softly textured, fruit-driven, complex style.

The Gaia Project wines are kind on nature and wild on taste. Every aspect of their creation has been carefully considered to offer wine lovers an environmentally conscious choice with great flavour. The Gaia Project wines reflect our sustainability journey so far, from vineyard to glass.

The embodiment of Mother Nature, Gaia represents Mission’s deep and enduring commitment to our natural world. Seeking to minimise our impact on Earth a little more each day, The Gaia Project unites our many ongoing environmental practices to preserve our Earth for future generations.
