Lemon zest and delicate pear, tropical fruit and melon whiffs on the nose. Crisp, fresh citrus entry onto the palate with light, clean grapefruit and lemon flavours which echo the nose’s promise. Deliciously refreshing and unfussy.

in the cellar : Upon arrival at the cellar, the grapes were whole-bunch pressed immediately to avoid any colour extraction from the blue/grey grape. The juice was allowed to settle overnight before being racked and cold-fermented using selected yeast cultures. The wine was kept on the fine lees in stainless steel tanks for 5 months, allowing time for the true potential of the Pinot grigio grape to be unveiled before being bottled at the end of September.
