This is a delicate, bright and floral expression of Pinot Gris. True to style and textured with notes of pear and white peach with a percentage of the fruit making its way to oak for a few months to create texture.

VIneyard | The Adelaide Hills is located in the Mount Lofty Ranges, east of Adelaide. One of the largest geographical wine regions in Australia, its diversity in terms of altitude, climate and soil helps to produce its distinctive cool climate wines. Fruit from the Woodside vineyard was machine harvested in the early hours of the morning, then crushed and drained through the press to retain the fresh, bright flavours.
Neatly tuned to the traditional gris styling, with orchard florals and cut-pear aromas leading to a rounder, textured palate that brings a lovely complete feel to the wine. Mouthfilling, with lingering pomme fruit flavours and a satisfying finish.”
