This is one of the most interesting ventures to emerge over the past few years, bringing together David Gleave MW, born and educated in Canada, now a long-term UK resident, who manages an imported wine business and writes widely about the wines of Italy; Alberto Antonini, a graduate of the University of Florence, with postgraduate degrees from Bordeaux and University of California (Davis), and Italian Flying Winemaker; and Mark Walpole, a 20-year veteran with Brown Brothers and now manager of their 700 ha of vineyards. The partners have chosen what they consider an outstanding vineyard on the red soil of the Heathcote region, planted to 17 ha of shiraz, 2 ha of sangiovese and 1 ha of monastrell (mourvedre). Exports to the UK, the US and other major markets.
