Pinot Gris/Pinot Grigio
Wangolina Pinot Gris 2024
Since the planting of this variety in 2007, the Pinot Gris at Wangolina has flourished in the cool climate of the coastal environment. This wine is reliably crisp and approachable, with slower ripening contributing layers of complexity and texture that enhance its appeal. Due to lower yields, albeit with immense quality, 100% of this wine was vinified and conditioned on site in their large format oak vessel, known as Foudre.
The 2024 vintage was marked by excellent quality for the Pinot Gris, though it came with the challenge of very low yields. The silver lining is that 100% of this wine has been fermented and conditioned in Frances, their French oak foudre. It features subtle orchard fruit and spice aromas that lead to a medium-weighted palate of pear drops, custard apple texture, and a touch of spicy length. The trademark Mt Benson acidity ensures a crisp and clean finish.
