2024 Pinot Grigio
Appearance
Pale straw with a bright salmon tinge.
Bouquet
Lifted bouquet of white stone fruit, green apple and pear.
Palate
Spiced pear and apple blossom driving the mid palate, balanced by fresh acidity, a mineral backbone, and a dry finish.
Fermentation
Hand harvested Pinot Gris was crushed and pressed into stainless steel tank. Fermented at 13 degrees C for 14 days, with lees contact post ferment for 3 months, then fined, filtered and bottled in November 2024 to retain fresh fruit driven characters of the variety.
Conclusion
Harvested early to retain natural acidity, producing a dry, fruit driven wine, best consumed over the next few years.
