2009 National Cool Climate Wine Show (Bathurst NSW) : BRONZE MEDAL
Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula has produced premium Pinot Gris for well over 20 years. The Peninsula’s cooler temperatures & coastal aspects, allow for Pinot Gris to be produced at exceptional quality levels.
The 2008 Maritime Estate Pinot Gris is an excellent example of Mornington Peninsula Pinot Gris. This Pinot Gris has a distinctive brightness in the glass, with a faint pinkish hue. The nose is complex….depictions of nashi pear & slight nuances of quince fruit. The palate is generous with beautiful nashi pear fruit flavours, slight sweet spice & balanced by a soft acid finish which lingers with every sip.
Maritime wines take their terroir and name to heart – everything you want in a wine whilst watching the waves roll in. The 2008 Pinot Gris is a great example of a crisp, fruity white wine, with a floral nose and pear, grapefruit and pineapple palate. Perfect accompaniment for crab salads and snapper fillets.
"This modest, hospitable cellar door is a bit off the beaten track, but well worth the visit. The driveway hides among the tall trees and descends to a leafy little clearing that smells fragrantly of pine and eucalypt. The secluded vineyard that stretches before the cellar door down to Stoney Creek, is a source of excellent Chardonnay and Pinot Noir made in the best Peninsula style." Ralph Kyte-Powell.
