About the event
Scorpo Wines are distinctive. The wines are made to express the flavours of the new world, in the style of the old world. They reflect their location and the unique characteristics of the soil and climate they are produced in. The Scorpo family chose Mornington Peninsula as the site for the vineyard due to the unique climatic conditions of the area, which are ideal for growing high quality cool climate varietals.
Wines on tasting:
SCORPO PINOT GRIS
The fruit is hand-picked, whole bunch pressed and sent directly to old (4 years and older) French barriques. Along with wild yeast fermentation, the use of old barrels accentuates the savoury side of this aromatic variety and also helps produce complex flavours, whilst still retaining plenty of fruit character. Mouth-watering, refreshing acidity is assured by stopping malolactic fermentation. The lees is not stirred. The wine is bottled after between 10 and 12 months.
