Tar & Roses Victoria Pinot Grigio 2023 - 12 Bottles

Wine Description

WINERY INFORMATION

Vineyard

Since 2004, Don Lewis and Narelle King have been making wine in Priorat, Spain. Their immersion within the classic European wine regions and varietals sparked their interest in how these varietals could be grown and made in their own regions within Central Victoria.

Winemaking

The grapes were machine harvested, crushed and pressed through an air bag press in the protective presence of SO2. Cold tank fermentation was undertaken at between 9 to 12 degrees celcius. The pressings and free run were fermented separately. A portion of pressings was transferred to barrel for fermentation and post completion, was stirred weekly for 1 month before being blended back with the free run for fining and cold stabilisation.

TASTING NOTES

Ballerina slipper pink in colour. Oak maturation for pressing for 1 month. Highly fragrant with honeydew melon, orange blossom and musk on the nose. A luscious textural wine with mouth filling juicy pear and lemon meringue characters, well balanced, lingering and dry.
