The Wine
This crisp and refreshing Pinot Grigio has abundant apple and pear characteristics with subtle little lemon and lime to enhance the bright textural palate. It has great depth and crunchy acid all the way through.
Winemaking
The Pinot Grigio was harvested at four different stages and levels of ripeness to help build complexity of flavour. The juice was drained off the skins right then left to settle for 24 hours before racking and then fermentation. A yeast strain was used to ensure maximum extraction of varietal characters, while fermentation temperatures were kept low to capture freshness and aromatics.
