- This off-dry Pinot Gris has layer aromas of melon and pink grapefruit with some smoky hints. It is richly flavoured yet refreshing. Lifted varietal aromas of fresh-cut pear and green apple lead to a refreshing palate of crisp, ripe pear and vibrant citrus fruit flavours. This Pinot Gris is richly flavoured with a lovely mid-palate texture and balance.
The hand-picked fruit was whole bunched and pressed to a stainless steel tank, where approximately two-thirds of the juice underwent cool fermentation at controlled temperatures of between 12°C to 15°C, retaining the pure fruit aromatics and freshness. The remaining third was barrel-fermented in old French oak for six months, imparting texture and subtle complexity. The wine was filtered using a cross-flow filter and gently fined.

| Winery | The vineyard is situated in the cool-climate subregion of Red Hill at an altitude of 146 metres above sea level. The estate vines are 14 years old and are grown on a distinctive Lyre or U-shaped trellis. They provide 50% of the fruit for this wine. The remaining 50% comes from a contracted grower in Moorooduc, a slightly warmer site that adds complexity and a layered dimension to the wine. The Mornington Peninsula is influenced by the cooling maritime climate, which helps the grapes retain acidity as they ripen. The soils are generally red basalt, storing sufficient water supplies to irrigate the vine through the warm summer. These soils result from ancient lava flows, are iron-rich, moderately fertile and drain surface water easily. This produces healthy vines with deep root systems, producing high-quality berries that translate into intense, concentrated wines. |
