2023 Pinot Grigio, Adelaide Hills 

Vibrant, racy, bright.

We love Pinot Grigio for the refreshing crispness it brings to the bar or table. Luckily it’s also perfectly suited to the cooler growing conditions of the Adelaide Hills where we continually see it shine.

Climate | Cooler due to elevation.

Season | The 2023 growing season was mild and cool, with regular rainfall. It started late, finished late and the grapes had lots of hang time and light yields.

Source | Grown in the high, cool central Adelaide Hills. The sites and aspects of south-east and east facing slopes are the pick for early ripening Pinot Grigio which allows the fruit to ripen more slowly.

Winemaking | Hand-picked, chilled overnight and whole-bunch-pressed the following day. This is to get the most pristine free run juice possible, with no phenolics. After we have gone to all those careful lengths we take the gloves off, allow the juice to oxidise and get some fluffy lees into the ferment. This is where we get the savoury note to the bright, vibrant wine. Vegan friendly.

Style | Aromas of Nashi pears and apples, which are also found on the dry, crisp refreshing palate. Great intensity and liveliness. This release benefits from superb ripening conditions, where the vines had ample rainfall and mild-to-warm days, with no extreme conditions, to slowly develop bright delicious flavours.
