Top Shelf Aussie Pinot Gris
Paul Scorpo produces some truly superb fruit from his meticulously planted vineyard on the Mornington Peninsula. With the help of winemaker Sandro Moselle, Scorpo has built a reputation for making some of the Peninsula’s best wines, and one of Australia’s finest Pinot Gris.
The 2018 Scorpo Pinot Gris is another complex, textural and flavoursome example of Mornington Peninsula Pinot Gris. Crisp pear, orange blossom flavours and some underlying nuttiness, are beautifully balanced by some crisp acidity and subtle French oak complexity. An ideal accompaniment to seafood and spicy Asian influence dishes.
"94 Points. Floral, honey, pear, apple. Juicy green apple and grapefruit kicks some zip into the palate, weighty yet fresh, texture is all chalky, the finish clean and long with a ginger and more savoury aftertaste. Such balance. Full-flavour delivered assuredly. Tasted: Oct21 14.5% alc. $34 Screwcap Drink: 2021 - 2023+"- Gary Walsh, The Wine Front.
