Quealy Feri Maris Pinot Grigio 2023

Quealy Feri Maris Pinot Grigio is a single-block Grigio from certified organic vines planted in 1982.

The home vineyard at Balnarring went in during 1982, making it one of the first on the Peninsula, and it is now certified organic and farmed without irrigation. This block was hand-picked on 20 March, pressed as whole bunches, settled, then racked with some solids into stainless steel and hogsheads, half of them new. The ferment ran on indigenous yeasts with no sulphur, and the wine sat on lees unstirred. Partial barrel fermentation has become part of the method, used to frame the flavour intensity these older organic vines now deliver. Racking and bottling came early, on 1 July, to hold freshness and the natural carbon dioxide of the ferment.

Citrus and florals over a deep mineral core, driving through the palate with snappy acidity and a finely laced grip. Serve at 10 degrees and let it open. Good with oysters, grilled whiting, chicken with preserved lemon, or a young manchego.
