Grant Burge East Argyle Pinot Gris is a pale yellow coloured wine which is highlighted by greenish tinges throughout. Its appealing bouquet gives off fragrances of sweet and spicy pears, vanilla ice cream and baked cheesecake, infused with subtle nuances of cinnamon and nutmeg. The rich and textured palate is packed with apricot, peach and pear flavours that end in a clean, lengthy and flavoursome climax. This magnificent Pinot Gris can either be consumed upon release or be cellared for a few years to enhance depth and flavour. Fish, fresh vegetables, crabs and shellfish go hand in hand with this excellent wine.

When making the 2013 Sidewood Pinot Gris, winemaker Tash Mooney carefully selects the best parcels of fruit from the vineyard that are hand-picked once the Pinot Gris has reached optimum Baume. It then begins its journey through the winery from being whole bunch pressed through to the fermentation process, ensuring at all times that the wines are at optimum temperatures to ascertain the quality of the wine. The 2013 Pinot Gris is pale straw with copper-pink hues, this wine displays vibrant aromas of guava and passionfruit on the nose. This leads to an intense flavour of nashi pear and tropical fruits on the palate with great structure from the crisp and well balanced acid. With its full structure, superb minerality and generous full mid palate it finishes with outstanding length and balance. A great accompaniment to freshly seared scallops, aromatic Thai spiced dishes or enjoy with a grilled vegetable cous cous as a vegetarian option.

A crisp, fresh wine with great citrus and tropical aromas finishing crisp and light with great natural acidity. The wine has purity and freshness. Sauvignon Blanc grapes grown in the cool climate of the Adelaide Hills are picked at the right time for optimum freshness, followed by gentle pressing and cool tank fermentation. Enjoy chilled while young, over the next 2 to 3 years.

The colour is vibrant pale yellow with hues of gold. The aroma is like spring in the Adelaide Hills. A veritable ripening of stone fruit, especially white peaches and nectarine in the market gardens, butter melon, rock melon and cooking leeks in butter. The French oak smells are a terrific frame for the stone fruit. Overall it has a 3 dimensional quality to the aromas, ripening stone fruit and some creamy & succulent French oak.

Dandelion Vineyards are proven plantings that have stood the test of time. The wish is to nurture the unique character of these vineyards and express their terroir in the wines. “When I see a weed I see the Devil” is an old grower’s mantra, but Dandelion Vineyards encourage the humble Dandelion amongst the vines as they suppress winter weeds, provide mulch in summer, and their Wishing Clocks to blow off in Spring.
