While the mesoclimes at Mount Langi are only marginal for grape growing, the estate's spectacular setting creates a unique environment that's ideal for producing wines of distinctive character. Neighbouring mountains Langi Ghiran and Cole create a cooling effect as chill winds tumble down and flow through the valley at night. As vintage approaches, the mountains shadow the vineyards before day's end, shortening the effective sunshine hours and prolonging the growing season for extended ripening. Parcels of Pinot Gris are crushed and cold soaked before vinification in controlled fermenters on light solids for two or three weeks. Early bottling preserves the lively fruit character and retains freshness. Alcohol 13.9%
