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.“

A great Aussie alternative to Provence style rosé.
So delicate considering a field blend of some of those heavy hitter grape varieties. A great one for those hot summer days that won’t overpower a meal and too easy to drink.
If you get the chance I would hunt down the Gilbert Blanc de Blancs as it’s still one that I can remember tasting and rather enjoying too.
🍷- Gilbert Rosé, 2023
🍇- Shiraz. Sangiovese. Merlot. Pinot Gris. Zinfandel. Petit Verdot.
🌏- Mudgee, NSW, Australia

Årets första gubbkväll med vin, ost och chark i veckan! 🤤 Sorry Josefin! 😬
Svårslagen jänkarsyrah hamnade i toppen för mig. Möjligen lite oförskämt med tanke på att det var mitt bidrag, men det visste jag ju inte blint å andra sidan. 😇
Jura gånger två gjorde verkligen inte bort sig. Kanske inte så överraskande med Vin Jaune, men vinet från -88 desto mer. 🥳
Högkvalitativ bdx spottar jag inte på heller, men lite mer hade jag nog önskat med tanke på årgång och producent i detta fall.
Joly kändes lite platt. Bondi – bra, men inte något extra. Mayer – som en riktigt bra mellanklass-bourgogne. Gilbert – bubblande mineralvatten med bra syra, men mer än så blev det inte. Tokaj – riktigt bra, men det var Jura som gällde denna kväll. 😀
Tack för det! 🙏

A must on your trip to Mudgee! Delicious wine tasting and a wealth of knowledge provided by Alberto 🇮🇹🙏 Grazie mille! Looking forward to enjoying our purchases 🍷 #winetasting #mudgee #mudgeensw #countrynsw #everythingtastesbetteringlass #glasswaterbottle #hydrateinstyle #reusablewaterbottle #ecofriendly #weekendsaway #australianwine #gilbertfamilywines #regionalnsw
This is such a great blend from Mudgee. It has Pinot noir, Pinot meunière and shiraz…gilbertfamilywines really know what they are doing with this wine! It’s a dry wine and the tannin is well balanced. It’s like a dark chartreuse in colour… (yes we are getting fancy with colour descriptions now)- it has a shininess in the glass from the colour that creates a bit of excitement. The aroma takes us straight to thinking it’s a Pinot noir - we all love this smell… it’s got the forest floor aroma that is typical of a Pinot noir. This is a nice easy drinking wine, we are so glad we have stocked up and bought more of this mudgeewine #australianwine #australianwines #mudgeewine #mudgeewineregion #nswwine #pinotnoir #shiraz #shirazlover #pinotmeunier #gilbertfamilywines #gilbertwines
