2024 Carousal Pinot Gris
WINEMAKER: Patrick Sullivan & Xavier Goodridge
REGION: Clare Valley, SA
VARIETY: Pinot Gris
VITICULTURE: Organic/Biodynamic
The 2024 Carousal Pinot Gris is a pale straw-coloured wine and opens with lifted aromas of red apple, pear and white nectarine, leading to a light-bodied palate that bursts with vibrant citrus flavours. The mid-palate reveals a delightful texture of stone fruits and honeysuckle, culminating in a clean, crisp finish that perfectly captures the region’s distinctive terroir.
Nestled in the cool-climate Alpine Valleys of North East Victoria, this vineyard thrives in the region’s high rainfall and unique cool subalpine continental climate, creating exceptional white wines. Despite the challenges of managing the high moisture and maintaining vine health, the rewards are remarkable each vintage
The fruit is whole berry pressed, with a warm ferment and time spent off gross lees for three months before bottling.
