You'll find Pinot Grigio almost everywhere in Italy, from the tip of the Italian boot to the foot of the Swiss alps. It's no secret around the Mediterranean that Pinot Grigio makes the most satisfying dry white wines. In Australia, the varietal is highly suited to the elevated aspects of King Valley. The Bellariva property is planted to sandstone soils covered by shale deposits which have been washed down over time by the river. Harvests of Pinot Grigio are whole bunch pressed and crushed to provide a range of phenolics for complexity and texture. Juices are treated to vinification in a mix of chilled fermenters and seasoned French oak casks. Lees are stirred regularly until completion and the final assemblage. Alcohol 12.0%
