Lees-Aged Pinot Gris
7 months ‘sur lie’
An Italian-style, dry (sugar-free) and refreshing Pinot Grigio – with a twist! This wine had 7 months ‘sur lie’ – ie sitting on the fine creamy sediments whilst I kept it cloudy by stirring it every 6 days to build the minerality and mouthfeel. The result is a dry, Italian-style of Pinot gris (ie Pinot Grigio) with classical pinot fruit flavours including apple, citrus and spice but with added complexity (a yeasty minerality) and a long lingering smooth texture.
Match with crunchy calamari, grilled snapper or eggplant parmigano.
