It was a matrimony between an American biochemist and the founder of Margaret River Devils Lair, that set the scene for one of the nation's most illustrious estates. A member of the Top 1OO Wineries of World, Giant Steps were established 1997, with a view to assembling an elite range of limited release Yarra Valley vintages. Crafted from the fruit of superior sites, some yielding just a few hundred cases each year, these are exclusive editions from bespoke parcels of elite terroir, bearing the curiously cryptic monikers of precious blocks of vine, Gruyere Farm, Applejack and Wombat Creek. Fashioned for aficianados of the euro style, defined by their winsome fruit and graceful tannins, the Giant Steps single vineyard range are all distinct for their expression of place, each articulate of a unique soil and influence of clime...

Semillon from Australia’s Hunter Valley meets Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand's Marlborough, to create a blend offering the best of both worlds, a perfectly balanced wine with an appropriate name

Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc are considered a perfect match because one compliments the other, bringing all the desired flavours and complexity of a great wine together. Semillon adds the texture, body and richness to Sauvignon Blanc and Sauvignon Blanc offers the structure, raciness and backbone to Semillon. A cross-Tasman marriage of components, blended to create a wine offering the best of both worlds, makes a perfectly balanced drop with an appropriate name – See Saw.

See Saw combines the talents of three winemakers who met in the Hunter Valley and who ten years later have reunited to collaborate on this exciting new project. Andrew Margan of Margan in the Hunter Valley and his former assistant winemaker Hamish MacGowan, now of Angus the Bull, were inspired to unite the best of Australian Semillon with the best of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc to create a new wine in the popular Semillon Sauvignon Blanc category.

Andrew and Hamish called on friend Sarah-Kate Dineen, formerly of Tempus Two in the Hunter Valley, to provide the Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. Sarah Kate (and winemaker husband Dan Dineen) returned home to New Zealand where they opened their own winery, Maude Wines. Andrew provided his prized Hunter Valley Semillon and it was up to Hamish to turn the idea into a reality and to perfect the final blend. Hamish conceived the name See Saw, developed the brand’s funky label and completed the business plan that would take the new wine to market.

They shared a stylistic goal which was to produce a wine with genuine complexity that also offered pure and simple drinking enjoyment. The name See Saw reflects the balance of this particular blend and also the collaboration of three friends from two regions with one common goal. This is about real people with real wine experience who are passionate about what they do and who are not afraid to push traditional boundaries. So chill it down, drink it up, enjoy it now.
