Youthful straw with a lively green hue. Gentle perfumed aromatics of citrus and pear with some faint muscat like characters. Refreshing palate showing varietal spice and delicacy. Textured flavours balanced by racey mineral acidity.
A generally cool growing season with good rainfall which particularly suited the aromatic varieties. Pinot Grigio is sourced both from our Yarra Estate vineyard as well as well as from the upper Yarra Valley. Fruit is hand picked and whole bunch pressed. The juice is roughly racked to both tank and cask. The cask components are stirred and topped fortnightly for six weeks before blending with the tank portion.
92 Points Rated Ray Jordan West Australian December 2013
"This pinot grigio from the Yarra Valley has been given a little winemaking treatment to get some more into the palate. It's been whole-bunch pressed and then fermented in oak and tank. Richly textured while retaining its tight control and delicate delivery to a long finish."
