Trentham Estate ‘River Retreat’ Pinot Grigio 2022, Murray Darling

Description

In 1960 Jack and Moya Murphy established their farm in the riverfront areas of Trentham Cliffs settlement, with the intention of growing citrus, vegetables and grapes for fortified wines. But when they saw how the vines flourished here, they shifted focus. Their first still wine was produced in 1984 and the rest, as they say, is history. Lemony citrus, juicy pear, fresh-cut apple – this wine has all those bright and crisp aromas we love in Pinot Grigio. Grapes were picked in the cool of the night to maintain their zingy character. A homage to the Murray Darling region’s unique watery landscape, it’s feel-good in more ways than just flavour: each bottle’s purchase includes a donation to a nearby university foundation.
