Our Review
The Gilbert family history is steeped in South Australian agriculture. Joseph Gilbert was responsible for the movement to viticulture, planting the first vines at Pewsey Vale in the Eden Valley in 1847. His great-great-grandson Simon Gilbert is now a 5th-generation winemaker and it was in 2004 that Gilbert Family Wines began to tell its story. Today Simon is joined by his son and 6th-generation winemaker Will Gilbert. Crafting wines from Mudgee, Orange and the Eden Valley, with developments also in the Hilltops, the pair produce both traditional and progressive wines with a regional focus. -SHANTEH WALE
