Gentle Folk Wines

We are a very small winery situated in Basket Range in the Adelaide Hills of South Australia. All our wines are grown in the Adelaide Hills, some by us, some by neighbors and friends. We pick by hand, we let wild ferments happen, we work the wine by hand/ feet and gravity. We don’t own pumps. All wines are stored in old French oak and we bottle by hand under cork or crown seal closures. No fining, no filtration and no additions to the wines besides a small amout of sulphur (30 ppm) added to some wines just prior to bottling. We don’t like to define our styles or wine making techniques. We just make wine in the way we feel is right for the season and most importantly, all wines are made with maximum drinkability in mind. GENTLE FOLK
