Production notes

Description

A little change of pace for our 2025 Pinot Gris. We decided to change up our source instead adding a wine from the Fleurieu for our 2025 Pinot Gris. Given the warm and very dry year, we are happy with the freshness we have achieved in the wine and that texture we love from the Gris style.

Winemaker Notes

With a drier than average Spring leading in to the ripening period, we were reliant on short regular waters to keep the canopies vibrant. Harvest was early and compressed with ample sunshine to keep the flavour ripening up in check with sugar accumulation. Our 2025 Pinot Gris was fermented in stainless steel to retain freshness and fruit intensity.

Tasting notes

Juicy limes and sweet florals with just a hint of blood orange matching the textural note with a touch of oilyness the finish.

Cellaring

Our 2025 Pinot Gris was fermented in stainless steel to retain freshness and fruit intensity. Matured on lees with stirring as required. Bottled late 2025.

Reviews

92 points, Ray Jordan, Wine Pilot

This is sourced from down in the Fleurieu Peninsula of South Australia. The wine was fermented only in stainless steel, as you might imagine, and that's resulted in a wine of vibrant purity, which is really what you're looking for in this style. It's not a bigger, developed gris style and is more restrained, but with a fairly typical appley, crumbly pear influence that is evident on both the nose and the palate. It's clean and it's crisp, but with some nice subtle peachy characters adding some depth. It's an appealing wine.

For this vintage, the team sourced fruit from the Fleurieu Peninsula, a new direction for them. Fermentation was in stainless steel. Pale lemon in hue, this is quite a concentrated style with notes of pears, florals and apples. There is a gentle flick of acidity evident in this wine of medium length. Good life here, this can be enjoyed for the next two to four years. 91 Points.
