Orange Tree Wines are a quirky & fun range made for you to enjoy with everyone! From the Murray-Darling region of Victoria, this collection is brought to you from a favourite family-owned winery, Zilzie Wines. The winery was established in 1999 by the Pfeiffer family, who have a long history in the Australian wine industry. Zilzie Wines takes its name from the nearby Zilzie Lake, which is known for its beautiful orange sunsets. Zilzie Wines is known for producing a wide range of high-quality wines with a focus on creating approachable and fruit-driven wines that showcase the unique flavours of the Australian terroir. Gaining recognition and wards for their wines both domestically and internationally has contributed to their reputation as a respected Australian winery. The Orange Tree Pinot Grigio has green hues and is pale straw in colour. The palate has flavours of crunch pears and juicy apples with a flutter of floral notes and a crisp acidity to finish.

Within Kiedrich’s Gräfenberg Grand Cru lies a small 0.5-hectare parcel once known as the Gräfenberg-Lay. Sitting in one of the steepest portions of the vineyard, the Lay is located at the transition between Gräfenberg and Turmberg and is known for having the highest concentration of phyllite slate on the hill. The vines here are now between 40 and 60 years old. This site was originally purchased by Dr Robert Weil in the 19th century, using the dowry from his marriage to Emilie von Vacano (a descendant of the Vacano family in Lombardy). The wine from this parcel, called Monte Vacano (the Hill of Vacano) was always produced and bottled alone. It was used only for celebratory occasions and never released for sale. Following Weil's death in 1921, the tradition of Monte Vacano fell dormant, and the fruit was incorporated into a regular Gräfenberg bottling. Compared to the Gräfenberg GG, Monte Vacano trades power and richness for exceptional purity, elegance and detail. Resurrecting the old custom, 2021 marks the fourth Riesling in a century made solely from this special lieu-dit. It was harvested in October, and the grapes were whole bunch-pressed into two ancient refurbished Stückfässer (1,200-litre casks) where the wine fermented wild and spent almost two years on lees before bottling.
