Description
Leading Hunter Valley winemaker, David Hook has worked everywhere from Tyrrells to Lakes Folly and in France, Spain. “David Hook is one of the unsung heroes of the Hunter Valley. His wines are always well made and reasonably priced – and this is an absolute cracker ..” Wine with Winsor Dobbin
David has made over 21 vintages of grigio now and quality is better than ever. Fruit is picked early and made in the Italian, citrusy and juicy style.
From the winemaker about this wine: “The word grigio means grey in Italian but the colour of Pinot Grigio varies in hue depending on climatic conditions during the growing season. This years wine is bright medium green with yellow and gold tinges. It has a sweet aroma of melon and tangerines with a touch of spice and flint. The wine is well balanced between fruitiness and acidity. The flavour is distinctive, complex crisp and lively. This crisp steely dry white is excellent when served chilled in warmer weather.
“Pinot Grigio has an easy to please flexibility when it comes to paring with food. The forward fruit characters and flavoursome but not too weighty palate means that it comfortably soaks up a range of cuisines. It becomes a wine that you could drink before a meal and during a meal, particularly lunch. If you’re searing some seafood, tossing a Thai beef salad together, Pinot Grigio would be the perfect match.”
Excellent value – Can’t go wrong here!
