Pike & Joyce Separe Grüner Veltliner 2025

Grüner Veltliner from the Lenswood region in the Adelaide Hills, fermentation was in stainless steel. Although perhaps drier than some of the recent vintages, 2025 is proving to be an impressive one. Lemon/green in colour, this is slightly leaner than some of its peers, but none the worse for that. We have notes of pears, apricot skins and citrus, along with a touch of green apples. Quite vibrant acidity is evident alongside the sleek yet firm texture. There is good focus and length and the intensity runs the full journey. This is an attractive example of the style and should drink beautifully over the next five to six years.
