Lerida Estate Pinot Grigio 2012 (Canberra)
11.2%, Screwcap, $25
Prob silly to be reviewing an 18 month old Pinot Grigio. But hey, Lerida can make decent wines.
This is much better than expected too – rather clean and chalky, the cut green and red apple palate is really juicy, even despite the flabbiness of an extra year in bottle. Even some leesy cream too, finishing quite long. You’d drink this for sure (and it would have been even better a year ago).
