Kevin McCarthy was the first in Australia to make premium Pinot Grigio and Pinot Gris.
Kevin's philosophy as a winemaker dramatically evolved when he arrived on the Mornington Peninsula in the late 80s. He directed his focus on viticulture,
knowing this was the key to making the greatest wine.
Kevin contracted out many vignerons to grow Pinot Gris on the Mornington Peninsula as well as provided the management
company that would harmoniously produce the superior vintages he desired.
T'Gallant winemaking style is expressive. Natural warm fermentations ensure gossamer-like yeast aroma. Each wine
is assessed regularly on its journey to the bottle. Reductive characters are blown off with air. Gentle fining when
required uses natural proteins found in isinglass and egg white. Blends of vineyards occur after fermentation; however
the knowledge of a vineyard's destiny has occurred many years before.
