$428.00 GST Included

AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

A young and vibrant Pinot Gris…White florals, citrus pollen, pear, nashi and lemongrass on the nose.

The palate is compact and complex initially then opens up to something textural, mineral and saline. Fresh citrus, pear, ginger spice and hints of lemongrass flow over the palate, finishing with mineral freshness.

The fruit is handpicked between three batches and whole bunched pressed using a gentle champagne press cycle. No enzymes or sulphur are used at the press tray and the juice is oxidatively handled to get rid of oxidative enzymes early on in the wine making process. The wine is left at ambient and transferred to barrel with full solids and minimal sulphur added.

Fermentation occurs using wild yeast and is then left unsulfured to the following summer at which time most of the wine has completed full malolactic fermentation. A minimal amount of sulfur is added in the spring and left in barrel for a total of 6 months where it is racked off gross lees and into tank. The resulting wine is bottled using no finings and minimal filtration.

First two vineyards of Merricks North and Talland Hill new block were picked early to maintain fresh acidity. Whilst the up the hill vineyard of Bayview was left longer on the vine to produce riper and bolder flavours.

About Polperro Wines

Polperro Single Vineyard wines capture the essence of the maritime climate of the Mornington Peninsula and the unique expressions of five individual vineyard sites, specialising in Pinot Noir, and Chardonnay.

Polperro Estate wines are produced from our own vineyards on the Mornington Peninsula, individual parcels are blended to create our estate cuvées resulting in something far beyond the sum of their parts.
