Balance Winemakers Selection Pinot Grigio 2020

This wine tempts with enticing aromas of melon which leads to a feast of fresh, lingering flavours of green apple and pear finished with a crisp acidity.

A perfect partner to food especially creamy bacon carbonara and seafood Laska.

in the vineyard : The vineyards lie in deep red soils ensuring excellent water-retention and adding structure and fullness to the wines.

about the harvest: With even budburst and cooler summer conditions gave the 2019 season a start with a slower ripening period. Grapes reached phenolic ripeness with good acidity and lower pH levels. The season was characterised by healthy, full-flavoured grapes.

in the cellar : Cold skin maceration was carried out for six hours before the juice was left to ferment in stainless steel tanks for three weeks at 12°C. The wine was left on the gross lees where batonnage was applied for a week. It was then racked and left on the fine lees till right before bottling.
