2018 Pinot Grigio

Description: The 2018 Pinot Grigio displays green pears, mandarin peel, fresh herbs underpinned by a lingering crunchy palate. We have opted for a drier style, as this in combination with the textural mouth feel allows the variety to showcase its nuances as well as ensuring that the wine can be enjoyed in partnership with food.
Body: light
Winemaking Notes: The alluring beauty of Pinot Grigio is discovered within its chalky mouthfeel and delicate fruit favours. Adelaide Hills finesse also breathes another dimension to this variety.
This is a drier style with flavours of green pear, mandarin peel and a lick of fresh herb.
Growing Conditions: Heavy winter rains filled the soil profile and set the vines up well for the season. Ideal growing conditions through spring encouraged a healthy, balanced canopy.
A comparatively cool and dry February and March allowed the vines to ripen at a steady pace, developing beautifully supple tannins at moderate sugar levels and retaining bright fruit flavours.
Food Pairing: Fresh salt and pepper squid with garlic aioli
