Troppo Pinot Gris

Think nashi pear, nectarine with the slightest dose fresh tomato leaf. This is built for long-sunsets, days by the beach or as an alternative knock-off after mowing the lawn!

Textural white wines are something of a thing at Unico Zelo (ahem, Fiano?); so the opportunity to flex our muscles a little bit with the universally loved Pinot Gris proved too hard to resist. From a new vineyard for us in the Eden Valley - a much under-appreciated region that makes excellent refreshing white wines. Flavourwise: think nashi pear, nectarine with the slightest dose fresh tomato leaf to provide a little savoury relief from any overt confection. This is built for long-sunsets, days by the beach or as an alternative knock-off after mowing the lawn!

We're aiming for utter drinkability via simple winemaking with this release, and we implement a small amount of skin contact for extra texture, prior to an extended fermentation.
