| Food Match | REGION Rutherglen, AustraliaWINEMAKER Marc ScalzoVINEYARDOur Pinot Grigio is grown at the De Bortoli Melville’s vineyard on the eastern edge of the Rutherglen region. The site is east facing and produces Pinot Grigio with delicate varietal definition and flavours. SEASONRutherglen experienced a wetter than average Spring and very mild yet consistent temperatures. This resulted in ideal growing conditions in which the vines flourished. These conditions continued into December and January but without any extreme events. The season started one week earlier than average with all whites coming in disease free yet with good varietal flavours due to the cooler season. From the start of February there was no significant rainfall and the temperatures stayed consistently warmer than average. As the season progressed and the vineyards continued to dry out, the red grapes became more concentrated and intense, whilst still maintaining their freshness. All reds were picked in optimal condition and the 2024 vintage promises to be one of the standout vintages of the last 10 years. TASTING NOTEThe colour is pale straw.

WINEMAKINGThe Pinot Grigio was fermented in stainless steel tanks under conditions that retain maximum fruit flavour. It was fermented at cool temperatures to accentuate the delicate pear and almond varietal flavours. After fermentation the wine was left on the yeast lees in the tank, which were stirred every two weeks to build texture in the mid palate. The wine was left on yeast lees for 2 months before being prepared for bottling. CELLARINGDrink now & enjoy!
