Vibrant scents of nashi fruit, lemons and limes on a lively palate of melon, pear and citrus characters with spice notes and a deliciously zesty finish. The inspiration for this label Lichen Dark, was the fabulous pattern work made by lichen on a stand of birch trees. All lacy loopy semi-transparent shapes that overlap and intertwine. This wine was crafted from 100% Pinot Grigio grapes, sourced from our vineyards in the Murray Darling and the Goulburn Valley. Grapes were picked and crushed during the cool of night to retain their fresh, varietal flavours. The juice was then divided into select parcels. Each parcel underwent a different treatment such as malolactic fermentation; fermentation and time with French oak; or spending an extended period on yeast lees. Each treatment resulted in an individually flavoured parcel of wine, and the unique character and personality of the final blend is a result of the special handling of these separate parcels.
The Dalfarras range of wines are made by the well-known and historically significant Tahbilk winery in Central Victoria's Nagambie Lakes. The Dalfarras Pinot Grigio has quickly established itself as one of the best value examples of this popular variety, with previous vintages strong performers on the wine show circuit. The 2023 Dalfarras Pinot Grigio delivers plenty of vibrant stone fruit, pear, lemon zest flavours with some appealing savoury and spice undertones. Another exceptional value example of Pinot Grigio from Dalfarras.
