2024 Estate Pinot Grigio
Adelaide Hills
Vineyard -The best fruit was selected from Block 8 of Lloyd Brothers Adelaide Hills vineyard on The Range. (Kuitpo)
Winemaking - A cool vintage led to great flavour development at low baumes whilst retaining great acidity.
Fruit from David’s estate was machine picked using a selective harvester in the cool of night, then crushed and air bag pressed with just the freerun juice being used for the Estate Pinot Grigio. The juice was settled prior to a long, cool ferment which helped to maintain all the lovely notes from vintage 2024. Following
ferment, the wine spent at least one month on lees with regular stirring to help build mid palate weight and mouthfeel. Vegan friendly.
Tasting Note - Pale in colour with aromas of cumquat, pear, apricot and lifted Spring blossoms. Refreshing
flavours of cumquat and apricot continue on the palate, along with crunchy pear, citrus pith and a hint of ginger spice. A fresh, crisp white wine which is best enjoyed chilled.
Food Suggestions - Best enjoyed in its youth, it pairs beautifully with an array of Italian dishes such as Prawn
and tomato linguine, Risotto Primavera and is surprisingly good with Sushi and Sashimi for a twist on tradition.
