Smidge is the small McLaren Vale label of winemaker Matt Wenk, the winemaker behind one of Australia's most successful Shiraz stories, who now makes wine under his own name. Matt has more than 30 years of experience making wine in Australia and around the world, and every Smidge wine reflects his precision, patience and respect for vineyard and vintage.
Smidge is deliberately not a large cellar door brand or a polished wine-club machine. It is a small, hands-on working winery where the wines are made on site from berry to bottle, with every small decision taken seriously because it shapes how a wine looks, feels and ages. The result is small-batch wines known for character, depth and detail rather than excess, with a clear line back to their vineyards; the range includes Fiano, Cabernet and Shiraz.
Tastings are small, quiet and personal, held at the working winery on one selected weekend each month by booking, for visitors who want to be close to the winemaking rather than at a large commercial cellar door.
