REGION
Grapes for our Art Series wines are sourced from a selection of premium vineyards within the renowned Limestone Coast growing region. The diversity in climate and geography makes it the perfect fruit source for the equally diverse Art Series range.
Vineyards are carefully selected based on their suitability for each wine’s individual personality. We look to warmer subregions for reds and cooler sub-regions for the whites.
The wines are then crafted to a consistent style and quality, which is perfect for everyday drinking or more salubrious occasions.
VARIETAL
Pinot Grigio thrives in cool growing conditions, so our fruit source for this wine is at the southern end of the Limestone Coast where the cooling influence of the southern ocean delivers in spades. The resulting fruit possesses high levels of natural acidity and clean, focused varietal flavors – our Rules of Engagement.
WINEMAKING
Following harvest the grapes are pressed and left to cold settle for two days before the clarified juice is run off into tank. The subsequent juice is fermented and stored in stainless steel for 4 months in order to retain the inherent bright fruit characteristics.
TASTING NOTES
Colour: Pale straw with green and lemon hues.
Aroma: Fragrant and lifted aromatics of orchard fruits including pear and apple blossom with hints of lemon and lime.
Palate: Fresh, crisp and clean palate with citrus flavours all nicely integrated with richer white peach and spice before a persistent and vibrant finish.
