Save Our Souls King Valley Pinot Grigio
Hints of kiwifruit and an undertone of white peach embraced by bright acidity giving it a fresh finish. Refreshing and dry, this wine matches perfectly with most dishes from crisp, fresco salads to fresh fish tacos with all the jalapeños. The King River flows down from the heights of Victoria’s Alpine region and has done so for millennia, slowly building a fertile plain of mineral rich alluvial soils. These soils are the broken-down bones of Victoria’s famous high-country. Cool air follows the river down from the mountains, settling in the valley and slowing the ripening of the fruit on the vines that sit alongside the majestic river. This cool climate produces subtle but complex wines that are beautifully balanced and finely structured.

The slightly extended skin contact prior to pressing gives the wine the lovely pink colour, making it evermore appetizing. The finishing is crisp and clean. Simply seamless.
