Tasting Notes

As Winemakers, we are able to capture the natural early ripening characteristics of the Rapaura sub-region appellation, harvesting the grapes early with a full flavour profile to make a range of wines that are 25% lower in alcohol vs. Stoneleigh Classic Pinot Gris.

Aroma & Palate

Pale straw in colour, this wine shows lifted nashi pear and gala apple characters, with background topical guava and pineapple notes.

The palate is lively and crisp with intense nashi pear, apple strudel and spicy flavours, complemented by a well-balanced
acid structure.

Enjoy With

This wine is a perfect aperitif, to be enjoyed with appetisers or lighter seafood dishes. The wine’s fresh flavour profile is also well matched with Asian salads and exotic spices.
Stoneleigh Grapes On Vine

WINEMAKING DETAILS

The grapes were machine-harvested and gently bag-pressed into two fractions.  The light-pressing fraction was oxidised before being blended back to the free-run juice. The blend was cool fermented with an aromatic yeast strain to capture the very distinctive regional and varietal characters.
