Hooper & Co Organic Pinot Gris 2022
About the wine
Intricate aromatic Wrattonbully white
- Here’s a perfect example of small batch winemaking, using different techniques, a lot of care and fruit sourced from the Hooper’s biodynamic vineyard on red Wrattonbully soils.
- A portion of this wine went into a concrete egg to develop. The unique shape creates a constant temperature and circulation for the wine and lees (dead yeast) inside the tank, creating a more complex and interesting glassful.
- Get ready for a festival of pear and apple with a whiff of walnuts and honeysuckle. By using different winemaking techniques, Derek and the gang believe they’ve brought you a fun and unique drop of white. Try it and let them know if they're correct!
Best before
We made this wine to be drunk whilst fresh and vibrant; sit back and enjoy a glass or two now!
Serving advice
This is a very versatile wine that would satisfy most palates. The perfect wine for any occasion; Lunch, dinner, or Happy Hour!
Food match
With this wineÂ’s complexity and aromas, it pairs beautifully with fish dishes, but donÂ’t let that stop you from trying it with other things! A good plate of pasta or a mixed cheese board would pair just as well. The delicate pear and apple notes would be complimented perfectly with a blue or fermented cheese. Why not try it with rich fatty foods and see how its natural acidity cleanses your palate? Every glass of this wine calls for the next!
