THE POEM
I've dug in the earth and pulled at the root
of my shadows dark vein and my story gone mute,
I've burned with the blue of an old man in time
And now give away what never was mine,
Yes I give all away what never was mine.
Garry Crittenden (Winemaker/Poet)
THE FIRST ONE
The Big Chair was the release that began the annual project. Having handed the winemaking and marketing reins to Rollo and Zoe, Garry set aside a parcel of estate Pinot each vintage so he could, in his words, make the wine his way and without intervention.
