Hugh Hamilton Wines is based in McLaren Vale, South Australia, and presents itself as the home of the Black Sheep. The winery states that Hugh Hamilton and Mary Hamilton are the fifth and sixth generations of a Hamilton wine dynasty stretching back more than 185 years. The Jim Jim label is named for Hugh's Labrador/Kelpie, remembered by the winery as a dog with a talent for knowing when grapes were ripe. The producer's style is playful, but the source materials connect the wine to a long-running South Australian winemaking family.
