The fruit is grown on the Scorpo family vineyard. The grapes were picked on 24th March 2017. 40% whole bunch with the rest destemmed. The wine spent 19 days on skins and was pressed out on the 13th of April. Fermented with natural yeast in one-tonne plastic vessels. Suitable for vegans.
50% whole bunches. 20 days on skins. Matured in old oak. It’s not unique but it’s not the norm for Mornington Peninsula pinot gris/grigio. Beautiful colour for starters. Deep russet-amber-crimson. Richly autumnal. It all goes from there. Flint, woodsmoke, graphite, potato skins, scorched dry pears, spice notes and no doubt more. Excellent intensity and the length to match. Skin-sy and stalky. A treat in its style.
