Grown on the ancient soils of Wrattonbully, just north of Coonawarra. The fruit is hand picked and the wine wild fermented. Vegan friendly, if that’s important to you. Made by Heather Fraser.

Smith & Hooper, Pinot Grigio, Wrattonbully, 2023

The colour a very pale lemon. Neat and tidy, with plenty of pomme fruits: yellow apple and pear flesh, cinnamon spice, breadfruit, soft lemon citrus and fragrant daffodil florals. A little flesh and weight to the palate to balance crisp, yet easy, acidity. Lingering spice through the clean finish.
