Garry's Projects
THE LABEL
The 2024 release is titled Anatomy, inspired by a drawing his grandson Finn, now 19, created when he was just four. "Finn spent hours crafting his interpretation, a vibrant, multicoloured skeleton complete with clearly defined bones and organs, an expressive, imaginative reflection of an early understanding of the human body," says Garry. Perhaps it was the process rather than the product that struck Garry, but as they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
THE WINE
Made from 114 and 115 clone Pinot Noir from the Crittenden family's sustainably farmed vineyard, which Garry himself planted in the 1980s. This small batch Pinot expresses bright fruit, fragrant aromatics and fine grain tannins that carry the palate beautifully. Exceptionally limited, with only one barrel produced.
