Description
This wine has lifted nashi pear and melon aromas and flavours and a well-balanced crisp yet generous texture, modelled in the classic Italian style with just a touch of fruit sweetness backed by a bright acidity and a lengthy punch of fruit flavour!
Winemaking Notes
The climate and soils of the Limestone Coast wine region enable us to produce Pinot Grigio very similar to the grape’s origin in Italy.
Grapes were harvested at their peak flavour maturity from a single vineyard in the South Australian Limestone Coast wine region.
The juice was separated from skins, cold settled and carefully transported home to Clare and fermented for 14 days. A steady cool ferment ensures a focussed palate with maximum Grigio fruit expression.
Growing Conditions
Vintage 2019 throughout South Australian saw lower than average rainfall throughout winter and spring, which led to limited subsoil moisture for the beginning of the growing season. Access to water and good irrigation management was critical, allowing canopies to remain healthy and strong. The long warm, sunny conditions of the ripening days and the cool nights has resulted in consistent yields and excellent quality.
Food Pairing
It is a great wine just to enjoy on its own, as an aperitif or will pair well with a varied range of food, particularly with spicy dishes or seafood!
