Tasting Notes

Mornington Peninsula is regarded as the home of Pinot Gris in Australia, and our example from Mingary reflects the tranquil and beautiful site nestled on deep volcanic loams. The Mingrarry Pinot Gris is bright, precise and pure – mirroring the poise and tranquillity of its birthplace. Fermented in large 1,000L Austrian oak vat, aromas of jasmine, green pear and sweet Viennoiserie pastry on the nose are complemented by a concentrated core of lime juice, white nectarine and pear juice, with a fine nerve of acid and phenolics providing laser-like focus.

Winemaking:Fermented and mature in large format oak, adding complexity and texture to complement the natural fruit purity and focussed acidity.

Viticulture:Mingary Vineyard sits within the cool maritime environment of the Mornington Peninsula, where vineyard elevations generally range between 25 and 250 m. Grey clay-loam soils with volcanic influences provide good drainage and moderate vigour, while constant sea breezes from surrounding bays create a long ripening season and preserve acidity.
