Pinot Grigio is harvested with the Estate Grown Arneis planted by Deen and Kevin De Bortoli back in 2000. The Vermentino is off the De Bortoli Moyhu vineyard located in King Valley, planted back in 2010.
Another dry winter followed by late spring rains enabled vines to produce a healthy crop of fruit. A hot summer brought Vintage on in a hurry kicking off on 21st of January. With crops slightly below average and no disease quality is above average.
3 Italian varieties planted by the De Bortoli family, were harvested together on the same day and into the same tank. Blend of Pinot Grigio, Arneis and Vermentino. The fruit of these 3 varieties were pressed together and the juice was allowed to settle for 1 day before racking to fermentation. Fermentation lasted 9 days and the resulting wine left in this tank on lees for 9 months to let the aroma and textures come together.
Step off the sidewalk and venture 'Down The Lane'. Excite your palate with our new savoury pick-me-upper Pinot Grigio Arneis, gluggable Rosé Gris de Gris, fully charged Shiraz Tempranillo and soft and juicy Merlot Durif Shiraz.
