2012 Kirrihill Serendipity Vineyard Pinot Grigio

Posted on November 16, 2012 by Jeremy Pringle

Made for a very specific demographic I suspect. One that probably doesn’t visit this kind of site very often. Certainly won’t help the confusion between Gris and Grigio. As much about sherbet and boiled lollies as it is about pears … Continue reading →

2012 Angullong Pinot Grigio

Posted on October 30, 2012 by Jeremy Pringle

I see a Pinot Grigio and I think ‘ho-hum’. Nothing changed when I pulled this from the fridge and poured a glass. Trends towards neutrality with faint aromas of pear, lemon and nuts. No real length – although I suspect … Continue reading →

2012 Pizzini Pinot Grigio

Posted on August 29, 2012 by Jeremy Pringle

I used to buy Pizzini Pinot Grigio back when it had a distinctive pink/bronze hue (2006 was the last of those I think). I thought it rather fetching but in a conversation with Joel Pizzini many years ago he mentioned that a … Continue reading →

Italy, delle Venezie 12.0% Screwcap $15.99 What can I say about Pinot Grigio that hasn’t already been said? Think I’ll just review the wine. It smells of pears, honeysuckle and nuts. Maybe a little orange blossom. It’s on the palate … Continue reading →

2010 Yalumba Y Series Pinot Grigio

Posted on January 18, 2011 by Jeremy Pringle

South Australia 13.0% Screwcap $14.95 As opposed to the last wine reviewed, this is in fact a Pinot Gris. So say I. It’s about riper, fuller varietal fruit and a softer mouth feel. What’s more, it’s a jolly good Pinot Gris … Continue reading →

2009 Brown Brothers Pinot Grigio

Posted on November 5, 2010 by Jeremy Pringle

King Valley 12.5% Screwcap $12.90 Source: Retail The Dan Murphy tasting panel gave this 90 points. I suspect James Suckling would be more like; “I’m 86 on that!”. That would probably be the only thing Suckling and I could agree … Continue reading →

2008 Pizzini Pinot Grigio

Posted on November 11, 2009 by Jeremy Pringle

King Valley 12.2% Screwcap $19 Back on the Grigio train, and here is an excellent example. I tasted it earlier in the year at the Brisbane Wine Festival and was a tad disappointed. No such problems this time. Gone are … Continue reading →

Hunter Valley 11% Screwcap $18 For someone more inclined towards inland beauty I’ve been getting to the beach a lot lately. Shared this with a friend over at Coochiemudlo (which still looks and feels the same as it did when … Continue reading →

2008 Curly Flat Pinot Grigio

Lancefield Macedon 11.7% Screwcap $24-Tasted 25/4/09 Back to maligned varietals, but first may I digress? (and lets face it, who’s gonna stop me) A few years back I was enrolled in a wonderful Southern Queensland Institute’s Sturt Affiliated Wine Science … Continue reading →
