    About the Wine

    This Pinot Gris is built around heady aromatics, texture and sheer drinkability. Grown by Clare Burder and Pete Allen on their elevated Whitlands vineyard, this wine showcases the cool-climate finesse of the High Plateau.

    Winemaking

    Made in two distinct parts; 50% whole-bunch pressed, and barrel fermented; 50% de-stemmed and fermented on skins for 21 days then blended before bottling. Lees stirring adds further depth and creaminess.

    Tasting Note

    Pink-peach in hue. Aromas of pear, watermelon, and ginger spice leap from the glass. The palate is finely balanced, with beautiful texture from skin contact, and a long, zippy acidity that drives the wine.

    About Fleet Wines

    Lisa and Justin Jenkins bring a clear and dynamic vision to their winemaking, with refined palates shaped by over 30 years of combined experience at some of Melbourne’s most iconic wine bars and restaurants. With extensive experience tasting the world’s best wines, the couple have channeled that expertise into crafting wines that are charismatic and full of personality.

    In 2016, the couple returned to South Gippsland, Justin’s childhood home, to pursue the winemaking dream and produce small, limited-release wines that capture a moment in time.

    Each Fleet wine is a reflection of its origin and varietal, offering a snapshot of a fleeting moment, lovingly crafted by two seasoned professionals who are driven by flavour and vibrancy.
