• Pinot Gris, not Pinot Grigio. Same grape, entirely different intention. Where Grigio is made lean and crisp for drinking fast, Gris is left to ripen and build texture and this is the fuller, silkier end of the family. Grown on a single cool-climate block in Canyonleigh, it is the textural white a winter table has been waiting for. The fruit was left to hang into the cool Southern Highlands autumn, building the ripeness and weight that give this style its texture while the altitude held on to the natural acidity underneath. Grown on a single block at PepperGreen Estate, this wine reflects the unique terroir of Canyonleigh altitude, cool nights and the conditions that give our whites their distinctive drive and character. Crafted with minimal intervention to let the variety speak for itself.

    Tasting Notes

    • A subtle bronze in colour.
    • Nose presents dried tropical fruit, pineapple and ripe pear, with a whisper of musk.
    • Rich, silky and textural on the palate with ripe pear and warm spice, carrying to a long, smooth finish.

    Food Pairing

    This is a white with enough weight and texture to sit beside cold-weather cooking. Where a lighter white would disappear, the Gris holds its ground against cream, butter, roasted flavours and gentle spice. Pasta and Risotto: wild mushroom risotto, creamy pappardelle, pumpkin gnocchi, carbonara Roasts and White Meats: roast chicken with thyme, slow-roasted pork belly, crackling and apple, veal schnitzel Richer Seafood: seared scallops, prawns in garlic butter, smoked trout, fish pie Spice: Vietnamese and Thai salads, mild curries, five-spice duck pancakes Cheese: semi-hard cheeses, Comté, gruyère, aged gouda, washed rind

    Serving Suggestion

    Serve at 10 to 12 degrees in a medium-sized white wine glass. A touch warmer than you would pour a crisp white -served too cold, the texture and spice that make this wine what it is go quiet. Give it ten minutes out of the fridge and let it open. The 2023 Pinot Gris is currently featured in our Tasting Room paired with wild mushroom and parmesan risotto.

      Reviews 93/100 points by Nick Butler
    Instantly savoury and under-stated. Aromatics are more Old World than primary and berry driven - spicy oak, dried herbs and just enough flesh and ripeness to match the structure. Something undeniably compelling about this wine. Wrestling for ripeness in an Australian sense, though lovers of Bordeaux would perceive no deficiency. A delicate, long finish with ripe tannins.

  • Meet "The Early One". Tempranillo takes its name from the Spanish word temprano, meaning early, because it ripens before every other red in the vineyard. The grape behind Rioja finds a fresh Australian voice in our Southern Highlands Tempranillo: medium bodied, food first and made for the table.

    The Tempranillo was harvested at optimal ripeness, living up to its name as the first red off the vine, to capture the variety's bright fruit and natural spice.

    This wine follows in the footsteps of our Gold Medal-winning 2021 Tempranillo, recognised in Tokyo at the Sakura Wine Awards alongside wines from Rioja and Bordeaux.

    Crafted to let the variety speak for itself. The just-right red for those who find Shiraz too big and Pinot too light.

    Tasting Notes

    • Dark ruby red in the glass.
    • Plum and spice on the nose.
    • Rich plum and Mediterranean herbs on the palate.
    • Succulent complexity and a soft, lingering tannin finish.

  • 2024 Pinot Noir Single Vineyard

    Our vines grow in the cool-climate Southern Highlands at Canyonleigh, 750 metres above sea level. Long, slow ripening preserves Pinot Noir’s delicate perfume and fine structure, while cool nights lock in freshness.

  • 2026 Pinot Grigio Single Vineyard

    Our first Pinot Grigio, made for the warmer days. Fresh, clean and effortlessly drinkable, this single vineyard expression captures the bright citrus and orchard fruit that make Pinot Grigio such a favourite at the table. The name means “grey pinot”, a nod to the grape’s greyish-blue skin, and the variety began as a natural colour variation of Pinot Noir.

    Grown at altitude in the cool-climate Southern Highlands, our vines sit 750 metres above sea level at Canyonleigh. Slow ripening and cool nights preserve natural acidity, giving this wine its brightness, freshness and drive.

    An approachable, drink-now style, made to be enjoyed young while its citrus and honeysuckle aromatics are at their most vibrant.
