Pinot Gris

Kalala Pinot Gris bottle shot

$23.00 (inc. tax)

Aromas of honeysuckle, pear, and refreshing citrus. Flavours of lime, lemon, pear, and white nectarine. Offers a refreshing twinkle of acidity, a saline-like minerality, and a weighty mouth-feel. Pairs well with fresh vegetables, raw fish, and lighter meals.

Growing conditions

The Pinot Gris is from Kalala’s certified organic Westbank Vineyard. The morning sun exposure brought maximum ripeness to grapes while the cool summer evenings maintained the vibrant acidity. The Pinot Gris was picked in three separate batches for better balance in the wine.

Winemaking notes

Picked on October 8, 2021, at Kalala’s Westbank vineyard, Block B and C. harvested at 23.6°Bx, the grapes were near ideal. We kept the fermentation temperature at around 15°C and it has taken around 2 weeks to complete. Used gravity clarification. Finished in stainless steel.
