Fat n Skinny Pinot Grigio 2018 South Australia Fleurieu Hills
Fat n Skinny Pinot Grigio 2018 South Australia Fleurieu HillsFat n Skinny Pinot Grigio 2018 is a dedication to Fats Holla and Skinny Gervanti but as much as they loved their McLaren Vale vineyard they knew from their early days in Italy that Pinot Grigio thrives in cooler climates. Sourcing Grigio from their mates in the hills, they have made a wine with a delightful balance of zesty fruit flavours and a clean finish.
We think you’ll enjoy their work. Perhaps sitting out on the patio with good friends, or as they would do it – easing back in the sofa that been on the front verandah for years.
Tapanappa Foggy Hill Pinot Noir 2014 South Australia Fleurieu Peninsula
Tapanappa Foggy Hill Pinot Noir 2014 South Australia Fleurieu PeninsulaTapanappa Foggy Hill Pinot Noir 2014 is the product of a slightly warmer than average vintage from the very cool Foggy Hill Parawa site.
2014 vintage was defined by the poor fruit set and low yields in an otherwise perfect growing season for Pinot Noir.
The colour is dense by Pinot Noir standards reflecting the sunny vintage effect on berry pigmentation and the effect of plucking the leaves from around bunches before veraison.
The fruit aroma is of spicy, sappy, ripe cherries with the floral notes that contribute to Pinot’s “peacock’s tail”. 2014 has contributed one of the most aromatic Foggy Hill Pinot Noirs yet.
The palate similarly has intense fruit flavours that persist reflecting the aromas but with very definite tannin structure that provides a savoury finish.
2014 Tapanappa Foggy Hill Pinot Noir is “a pure expression of the unique Parawa, Fleurieu Peninsula terroir”.
