Dalfarras Pinot Grigio 750 mL
VITICULTURE / WINEMAKING
This wine was crafted from 100% Pinot Grigio grapes, sourced from our vineyards in the Goulburn Valley. Grapes were picked and crushed during the cool of night to retain their fresh, varietal flavours. The juice was then divided into select parcels. Each parcel underwent a different treatment such as malolactic fermentation; fermentation and time with French oak; or spending an extended period on yeast lees. Each treatment resulted in an individually flavoured parcel of wine, and the unique character and personality of the final blend is a result of the special handling of these separate parcels.
HARVEST NOTES
2019 will be remembered as the hottest summer on record, exacerbated by a dry winter and early spring. The weather bureau had consistently forecast a warmer and drier than normal summer, and this finally eventuated after Christmas. February temperatures were just a fraction above average, but the heat was relentless, and there was no useful rainfall for the month so it remained exceedingly dry. Ripening continued to be steady even though the hot days and warm nights continued, which allowed us to bring in fruit at optimum ripeness. At this early stage, white yields being down on expectations but quality is good with Riesling and Marsanne being the standouts. The reds appear to have fared better yield wise, and have bright fresh fruit, depth of flavour, with rich, full palates. It looks like being a very good year for the reds.
This Pinot Grigio reflects the Italian style – light, fresh and floral with vibrant stone-fruits and a touch of spice.
A wonderful accompaniment to char-grilled seafood or light salads.
