Pente by Pikes Adelaide Hills Pinot Gris 2021
About the wine
Handpicked, high altitude Pinot Gris from local legends
- This luscious white comes from a high altitude and very steep vineyard in Lenswood - so steep they have to handpick! The love and attention carries into the winery, where the careful winemaking process preserves the purity of the fruit.
- Picked a little riper, yet fermented to near dryness, it’s packed with nashi pear, red apple skins and a drop of pink grapefruit. A mouth-filling marvel with cleverly balanced acid that provides a deliciously mouth-watering finish.
- Hand-picked high altitude Pinot Gris from one of the most prestigious sub-regions in the Adelaide Hills like this can cost twice as much elsewhere. Try it with grilled prawns and watch the magic happen.
Best before
