This wine is a labour of love – one the accountants didn’t know about! A few
vintages back, winemaker Jo Nash was approached by a neighbouring winemaker
who had some spare Shiraz grapes to sell. She didn’t have the budget for the
grapes but knew they would be a steal at the price. So, she found a way to borrow
the money from the next year’s budget but decided not to tell Gary (Williams),
McPherson Wines' General Manager at the time.  She then needed barrels to age the wine in, so sourced some ridiculously expensive French oak barrels, again deciding not to tell Gary. Don’t tell Gary or ‘DtG’ became the code name for the wine and it stuck!
