Captivating Aromas and Flavours

The 2023 Port Philip Estate Pinot Gris captivates with its straw colour and a slight bronze tinge. The nose opens with lively aromas of pear and green apple, complemented by floral scents of rosewater and honeysuckle. Additionally, intriguing spicy notes add complexity. The textural mid-palate reveals delicate nectarine and biscuit flavours. These flow seamlessly into a crisp, almost spicy finish of pear and apple skin.

History and Winemaking

Port Philip Estate, located in the Mornington Peninsula, is known for its exceptional wines. These wines reflect the region’s unique terroir. The area’s cool climate and diverse soils contribute to the development of complex wines. The 2021 vintage of Pinot Gris highlights the winemakers’ care and expertise. They strive to capture the varietal’s true essence.

Winemakers select the grapes with great care. They vinify the fruit to preserve the natural flavours and aromas. The wine’s slight bronze tinge comes from extended skin contact during production. This process enhances the wine’s complexity and depth.
