Our Pinot Grigio is planted in the highest point in the vineyard, at an altitude of approximately 480 metres above sea level, where it enjoys cool nights and shade from the afternoon sun – ideal for premium Grigio production. We aim to follow the leaner, drier Italian model of Pinot Grigio to make a wine that is delicate, lifted and versatile. The juice is barrel-fermented in old French barriques and goes through partial malo-lactic fermentation which has resulted in a complex flavour profile and soft, generous mouthfeel. Primary characters of pear, grapefruit, green apple and chamomile combine with refreshing acidity and great length on the palate.

TASTING NOTES

Reviews

Light yellow hue; intriguing spice aromas, background floral and creamy lees nuances. Intense in the mouth, with refreshing acidity and a clean, dry, appetising finish and aftertaste. Good length: a benchmark for pinot grigio

“Ace of Trumps 2018 shows real depth and intent. There’s intensity, but also restraint dark berries, spice and a beautiful structure that holds everything together. It drinks beautifully now, but you can tell it will reward patience. A standout wine that lives up to its name.”
