Pizzini Pavona Pinot Grigio 2022

Pale straw in colour with a soft green olive hue. This wine exudes citrus, pear and granny smith apple aromas. The palate is well rounded and complex with lees stirring adding texture. The wine shows depth, refreshing acidity and good length. Enjoy this wine with a prawn, basil & tomato pasta or fish and chips.

The grapes for the wine have been selected from our new vineyard at the cold end of the King Valley, situated under the famed Powers Lookout. This area is a stunning place to grow grapes, it produces fruit of a very high quality due to its cool climate and rich volcanic soil. The fruit has been whole bunch pressed to preserve the best cuvee. 50% of the juice is fermented in old barrels and aged for 5 months, with lees stirred regularly to add richness and texture and the other 50% is fermented in stainless steel to retain freshness and floral aromatics. The two portions are blended after aging separately to produce a wine with light texture and richness with lovely floral aromas.
