Tasting Notes
Easily one of the best Savagnin's I've tried from Australia. This wine nails everything I love about the variety and the wines of Jura capturing layers of orchard fruit and ginger spice coated with layers of oxidative nuances that let the wine flow and coat your palate. A moreish and contemplative wine that I hope to see more of. - Pete L
Defialy is the personal wine project of Micah Hewitt, rooted in the Macedon Ranges of Victoria. Micah farms and sources fruit with an emphasis on regenerative and sustainable practices, and he approaches winemaking with a “hands-off, minimal intervention” philosophy—what he playfully calls “minimal fuckery.”
While his home base is Macedon, he also sources fruit from like-minded growers across central Victoria to work with Italian and French varieties less common to his immediate region. His wines include both single-varietal expressions and unconventional blends, often highlighting texture, energy and purity over overt power.
Defialy is known for wines made with native ferments, minimal additions and expressive style—they’re made to enjoy, with emphasis on site and character rather than intervention.
