Pinot Grigio
2006 Pinot Grigio
“The 2006 Stefano Lubiana Pinot Grigo ($A29) has the requisite varietal fruit and combines intensity with delicacy. “Fresh pear, ripe fruit” says Bourne.” “Very clean and fine, with a warm texture.” There’s a light tannin grip, balanced acidity and good length. It neatly falls between the gris and grigio styles. Four Stars." Gourmet Traveller Wine, December 2006, Peter Bourne
“ Quite a lean wine in flavour with a suggestion of apricots and a touch of firmness on the finish. It goes well with caramlsied mushrooms, crispy croutons and goat cheese.” Donna Hay Magazine, Autumn 2007 “Similarly, with pinot gris and pinot grigio there was only one wine worthy of a medal, Stefano Lubiana 2006 pinot grigio ($26). Seems too many Tasmanian producers (and they’re not alone) decide on which style they will make – gris or grigio – only after they have picked their grapes. More appropriate site selection and premeditation may help deliver a stronger style.” The Age, 6th February 2007, Jeni Port “The 2006 Stefano Lubiana ($26) was lovely with lifted floral notes on the nose, delightful citrus/pear flavours and a long finish. The verdict? The overwhelming favourite Pinot Grigio was the Stefano Lubiana with the Coldstone winning a close race for the best value white.” 2005 Pinot Grigio the nose and pallet with a crisp finish. Try it now with seafood or pasta with creamy sauces. $25-$27. Try the Jindalee Hotel, Theo’s, the Kirra Beach Hotel, The Grape or Vintage Cellars. Rating 90. Mike Frost The Brisbane Courier Mail, 28th March 2006 2004 Pinot Grigio
Rating 87Delicate, crisp, clean, minerally style; some nashi pear. James Halliday 2006 Australian Wine Companion (Collins, Australia 2005) 2004 Pinot Grigio
This Tasmanian Pinot Grigio tastes like a white but feels a bit like a red wine. It’s to do with phenolics. These are substances that come from grape skins and give wine its tactility. Here, judicious use of phonelics has given this spicy, aromatic white the cut and thrust to deal with a creamy sauce. Full Bottle, ‘Discovery’ The Sydney Morning Herald, 23 April 2005 Greg Duncan Powell 2004 Pinot Grigio
Pinot Grigio is the Italian name for the pinot gris grape- usage depends on whether the wine maker takes a French (gris) or Italian (grigio) approach. A delicious cool climate wine with of light-to-medium weight, try a glass with buffalo mozzarella bruschetta. Mary Ann Egan- Donna Hay Magazine, November 2005 (Issue 2.) |
