Four decades ago the Buttery family planted their first McLaren Vale vineyard, more recently, bottling the very best parcels from their 360 acres under the family owned Gemtree label.
Uncut is made from Shiraz fruit, hand selected from the family's 40 year old Tatty road block. The simultaneous ripening of flavour, sugar and tanin in the fruit has resulted in a wine which shows remarkable balance early in the aging process.
Simple crushing, naturla open fermentation and gentle pressng into French oak barriques for 16 months before minimal fining and filtration is the key to preserving the vinyard character in this wine.
Simply magic!
