Experience the elegance of the Estate Pinot Gris 2023, a wine that captures the essence of our vineyard's unique terroir. Awarded 95 points and a gold rating by the Halliday Wine Companion 2024, this Pinot Gris is a testament to our commitment to natural winemaking. Hand-picked and whole bunch pressed, the grapes are fermented with wild yeast, embracing a minimal intervention approach that allows the true character of the vineyard to shine through.

For over a decade, Delatite has dedicated itself to producing wines as naturally as possible, using 100% wild yeast in all Estate wines and avoiding enzymes or fining agents. This practice not only preserves the authentic flavors of the grapes but also makes our wines vegan-friendly. The biodynamic principles we follow in our vineyards further enhance biodiversity, ensuring the health and vitality of our vines without the use of artificial inputs.

This 2023 Pinot Gris offers captivating aromas of stone fruit blossom and nectarine. On the palate, you'll find a delightful blend of rich tropical fruits and sweet stone fruit aromatics. The wine is full-bodied and round, with a luscious, fruit-driven finish that pairs beautifully with full-bodied white meats like pork or chicken thighs. Enjoy this exceptional Pinot Gris as a true expression of natural winemaking at its finest.
