Snake Herring Bizarre Love Triangle Pinot Gris 2024

We have sourced the Pinot Gris and Riesling from Mount Barker and Pinot Gris from the Frankland River region in the Great Southern, the more northern aspect and continentality being perfect for these Alsatian varieties. Pinot Gris has a great texture with pearskin, minerally slate and oyster shell notes. Riesling adds a fine thread of citrus and acidity. All components were pressed individually and pressings fractions separated. We barrel fermented all pressings fractions as well as the Pinot Gris free run in old 500L puncheons to add texture and volume. The free run components were fermented in tank. After 4 months on lees in both tank and barrel, the various components were reassembled.
