Bright straw with golden hue. Perfumed nose of white florals, pear and honeydew. Crunchy, fresh and varietal. This wine delivers a core of luscious pear and stone fruits, intertwined with fragrant florals and spice. Flowing, generous palate with chalky acidity that provides a persistent finish.
Mount Langi Ghiran is a pioneer of cool climate winemaking and one of the first vineyards in Australia to plant Pinot Gris. Scarce and limited, we were able to source our first Pinot Gris cuttings from two small growers in 1994. Over the last two decades, we have honed our skills in the vineyard and employed a range of winemaking techniques to create our classic Billi Billi Pinot Gris. This wine captures the intense flavour profile and acid structure that is reflective of our cool climate. The result is an aromatic wine, with a varietal core, textural depth and fine acidity.

"The cool Grampians climate gives pinot gris the drive that it misses in warmer regions. Nashi pear aromas surge out as the glass is swirled and the range of flavours intensify on the palate and finish. Grapefruit zest, nashi pear and minerally acidity coming into play."
Huon Hooke The Real Review
"Pale colour. Restrained but fresh aromas, gently yeasty, primary fruit, herb and lemon-citrus characters, but fairly bland, the palate very light and a bit watery, the finish cleanly dry and appetising. A general purpose quaffing dry white."
