Gilbert Family Wines

The Gilbert family dates back to Australia since 1839, and as winemakers since 1847. In 2004 the father and son team, Simon and Will, began Gilbert Family Wines. Since then, they are hand- producing wines from Mudgee and Orange (the place! not to be confused with the wine style). The cool climates and long hours of sunshine result in fresh, vibrant, approachable wines that make for easy but great drinking.

Will Gilbert is a 2020 nominee for Australia’s prestigious Young Guns of Wine award. As YGOW describe, “Orange is defined by elevation, with all vineyard sites above 600 metres. Will Gilbert’s family draws grapes from their Mudgee vineyards, which are in a relatively cool spot at 520 metres, but they now focus their Gilbert label on producing wines from Orange. They source from various vineyards in the region, including the Borrodell Vineyard, which ranges over a positively lofty 930–1,030 metres. That’s very high for grapes, and typically very marginal, but with abundant sunshine and plenty of air movement to stall the progression of disease, it’s an exciting place to be growing grapes.

Gilbert är efternamnet på pappa Simon och sonen Will som driver gilbertfamilywines i Australien. Egendomen har vingårdar i Orange, Mudgee och Eden Valley, tre vinregioner som är kända för att vara svala klimat. Här blir vinerna eleganta och friskt balanserade men också med en tydlig koncentration. Viner finns på druvor som pinot noir, shiraz och riesling ❤️

Gilbert Family wines is a father and son duo from New South Wales and they are really mixing things up in the Australian wine industry. While Simon (the father) brings a wealth of knowledge of traditional wine making practices, he is modestly proud of his wines that he describes as ,”wine of purity, elegance and vibrancy”.

Will (the son) is a 6th generation winemaker fro the Gilbert Family originating from Eden Valley, South Australia, in 1939. Starting to help in the cellar at age 10, Will developed an interest in wine from an early age. He has studied Oenology and has spent time working in vineyards around Australia, Niagara and the Okanagan here in Canda. Will brings a youthful approach to winemaking with new blends and trendy expressions. #gilbertfamilywines

Will Gilbert
2021 GT WINE Young Winemaker of the Year

We`ve been massive fans of Will Gilbert`s work in his family`s winery for many years now, often featuring him in our Must-Watch young producers hit-lists so it`s great to see some industry recognition of the excellent work he has been doing.

Since taking over from his father Simon in the winemaking department, Will has managed to keep the consistent classic stylings of his father`s wines and complement them with a series of more experimental wines that are intentionally built for a new generation of wine lovers.

"Will was destined to be a winemaker... Seizing the opportunity to taste, talk and experiment with his peers and the stalwart wine producers that come and go at his Mudgee winemaking facility, Gilbert’s portfolio has taken on a new and exciting direction. Now at 32, he is only at the threshold of his vinous journey. Experimentation and evolution will continue."
- GT WINE

Importantly, Will`s wines all over-deliver in the value for money stakes. Here are three wines that we think perfectly encapsulate his range at the moment. From Pet Nat to a beautifully balanced aromatic white and one of the best examples of Orange Pinot Noir we`ve tried this year.
