Clandestine Vineyards Pinot Grigio 2021

From a single vineyard in the Woodside sub-region of the Adelaide Hills, planted in 2008, this is an impressive Pinot Grigio and
amazing value. The team harvest early “to preserve natural acidity and aromatics”, before the grapes receive a gentle pressing, with the free run juice only being used. The cold fermentation is in 100% stainless steel. 9,000 bottles produced. Light lemon in colour, there are notes of spices and pears. Lovely citrus emerges, but it is the pears and apples which steal the show. Bright, clean and with decent length, this has good focus and vibrant acidity to carry it. Good length here. Now to 2-3 years.
