Guiding Light

Gentle aromas of white blossom open into a rounded palate of golden apple, comice pear and white peach, with a hint of lemon curd. Fresh and finely textured, it carries through to a lingering finish.

100% Pinot Gris

Planted on the south-west side of Greenhurst Field, this 1.2-hectare Pinot Gris block sits lower on the slope, where deeper soils and cooler conditions prevail. Good sun exposure and airflow support steady ripening while retaining freshness and acidity. Planted with three clones, it delivers a range of flavours and textures, resulting in fruit with fine balance .

The 2025 Pinot Gris was crafted with a gentle, reductive approach and a layered pressing strategy. Half the fruit was destemmed and half whole bunch pressed, with the juice settled overnight before recombination. Fermentation took place in three vessels: predominantly in concrete egg for texture, with smaller portions in stainless steel and acacia barrel for added aromatic and structural nuance. The wine was aged on lees through winter, building depth and integration, before final blending and bottling in early spring.

The 2025 season was warm, dry and notably consistent, providing ideal conditions throughout the growing cycle. Early budburst and a settled flowering period led to strong fruit set, with long, sunny days ensuring steady ripening and minimal disease pressure. The result is a vintage that combines generous ripeness with freshness, structure and poise, reflecting both clarity of site and balance in the fruit.

This Pinot Gris pairs well with fresh, vibrant dishes that complement its subtle complexity. Try herb-crusted chicken, roasted root vegetables, or citrus and fennel salad. It also works beautifully with seafood such as grilled scallops or lemon butter prawns, while soft cheeses like young goat’s cheese or ricotta highlight its rounded texture and clean finish.
