FITZ & GIBBON / Adelaide Hills

Two mates. A primo block of Pinot Meunier in the Adelaide Hills. Minimal, garagiste winemaking. A new label with plenty of personality, a delicious look at this grape rarely seen unblended.

Fitz & Gibbon Pinot Meunier 2022
$ 38.00 incl. GSTHandpicked fruit is basked pressed and raised in stainless steel with lees stirring to build texture. A meagre 953 bottles produced from this vintage.
An ultra-attractive nose, forest floor and graphite under bright forest berries and rhubarb compote, a prosciutto/charcuterie note lurking there too. Beautifully bright to drink led by cranberries, a twist of amaro, sweet spices and rosewater, around perky acidity and fine vibrant crunchy tannins. An easy wine to love for fans of Pinot Noir, though its red fruits give it enough distinction. Lovely purity and personality in this release, crisp and lucid.
