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 20 vintages of grigio now and quality is better than ever. Fruit is picked early and made in the Italian, citrusy and juicy style.
The wine is well balanced between fruitiness and acidity. The flavour is distinctive, complex crisp and lively. Crisp green apple and pear give it a nice crunchy texture.
Pinot Grigio has an easy to please flexibility when it comes to pairing with food. The forward fruit characters are flavoursome but a 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 or tossing a Thai beef salad together, Pinot Grigio would be the perfect match.
Winemaker notes about the 2019 release …”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.
Excellent value – Can’t go wrong here!
