Tropo

Pinot Gris

Textural white wines are something of a thing at Unico Zelo (ahem, Fiano?); so the opportunity to flex our muscles a little bit with the universally loved Pinot Gris proved too hard to resist. The big secret is that we've always made a little bit of Pinot Gris each vintage usually ending up in wines such as Tropo Pink Pet Nat or swilled avidly by our own team at long-lunches. Looking for flavour? Think nashi pear, nectarine with the slightest dose resh tomato leaf to provide a little savoury relief from any overt confection. This is built for long-sunsets, days by the beach or as an alternative knock-off after mowing the lawn!

We're aiming for utter drinkability via simple winemaking with this release, picking earlier for elevated natural acidity and a small amount of skin contact prior to an extended fermentation.
