TASTING NOTES
COLOUR: Very pale straw.
AROMA: Aromatic pear and green apple fruit aromas with a slight floral lift.
PALATE: Apple and crunchy pear couples with background spice. Its bright, mouth-watering acidity creates good line and length and a refreshing finish.
WINEMAKING
“The fruit for our La Zona Pinot Grigio is harvested early in the season to achieve its distinctive light floral fruit flavours with good natural acidity. The juice is handled oxidatively to naturally remove any colour and unwanted tannins prior to settling and racking, then fermented cool in stainless steel to preserve fruit flavours followed by a short maturation period on lees during autumn and winter, before bottling in spring.” Warren Proft, winemaker
FOOD PAIRING
This wine is a popular choice in the Chrismont Restaurant thanks to its adaptable style making it possible to be enjoyed with so many dishes on our seasonal a la carte menus.
Boccaccio Cellars offers real time shipping rates at checkout. These are heavily subsidised rates directly from Australia Post and will vary depending on your postcode.
Unfortunately, due to the ever increasing costs of postage we are unable to offer free shipping any longer. Postal increases have seen the average box of wine range from $30-$60, which can represent up to 500% of the cost of the average bottle of wine.
Your postal costs are calculated on the following factors:
- Where in Australia you are shipping to (Where rural postcodes obviously attract a higher charge)
- What in Australia you are shipping (Beer and water for example, are calculated in real time without any additional subsidy. This is because the margins for these products are minimal). Dry goods attract a discounted flat fee of $12 per carton (Calculated by gross weight).
Pickups on all items are encouraged.
