EKIN Wine Co. was born from the grassroots passion of two vineyard veterans, Brad and Mark - wine people first, business people by necessity. In the thick of the 2021 vintage, they found themselves harvesting far beyond expectations, with high-quality fruit at risk of being left to waste. Refusing to let good grapes go unused, the duo sprang into action. What began as a favour for mates turned into something bigger: a wine label forged from camaraderie, hustle, and deep respect for the vineyards they help bring to life.
The 2025 EKIN Adelaide Hills Gamay is a cool-climate Adelaide Hills Gamay showing juicy red fruit, floral lift on the nose. Vibrant red fruits and blueberry flavours feature on the palate in this light bodied and silky textured wine. A wonderful value Gamay of wide appeal, this is ideal for drinking all-year round however during the warmer months will be perfect slightly chilled.
"This is bright and juicy and should win a lot of friends. It's not trying too hard, it's not particularly complex, but it does deliver sappy, snappy red cherry fruitiness, a touch of wild raspberry, some dried herbs and an uplifting, minerally crunch to texture. A chill would go nicely, too. Very pleasing. Well priced, well worth it. 91 Points. 13.5% alc. Drink: 2026 - 2028. Screwcap"- Mike Bennie, The Wine Front.
