James Hamilton is making colourful, energetic wines that are on point with the drinking zeitgeist of Australia.

He's keeping it simple. Fruit grown right, the wines made with very little tinkering or adjustments. And importantly, the wines are built for drinking in their youth.

This is just the kind of warm-weather red that we should be drinking more of these days. It's Pinot Noir picked early, fermented as whole bunches, dialled in to a light, nervy, thirst-quenching style.

Looking for a red for the warmer seasons? This Manic Monday is just what you're after.
