Barramundi Pinot Grigio (2018)

"Barramundi" Pinot Grigio made from Pinot Grigio grapes grown in the best vineyards in the South Eastern region of Australia. Pinot grigio is most famous in Italy, but here this well-travelled grape has produced a wine made in the style of the New World: juicy, smooth, tasty, fruity.

The fruit was harvested at night and in the early morning to avoid oxidisation. Vinification was a traditional method with a long alcoholic fermentation at a controlled low temperature.

The resultant wine is pale straw yellow colour with a greenish tinge. The aroma is replete with notes of honey dried apples, pears and fig jam, spread on a thin rosy toast of pumpkin bread. It is medium bodied and has a silky texture in taste. Notes of apple pie, ripe nectarine and chopped nuts are present in the aftertaste. 

Barramundi Pinot Grigio perfectly highlights the taste of barbecue chicken, Thai chicken and fajitos with chicken. Or just drink it on its own and think of an Australian summer!
