About The Wine
Sam Coverdale has a way with Pinot Gris.
Where his Polperro Pinot Gris is all about full-noise flesh and texture with a serious oak influence, this example is more about fruit purity, though there's certainly a serious amount of mouth feel that comes along for the ride.
Sam allows this to go through full malo and spend a few months on full lees to build creaminess and weight into the wine.
But the freshness to the finish is absolutely delicious. A Gris with plenty of interest for lovers of the variety.
About Polperro
Sam Coverdale is living his dream. Farming a little patch of Mornington Peninsula and making wines that he loves to drink.
"We believe that great wines have character and balance, and that they are grown on the vine." he says, hence his move toward organic farming principals.
The more care he has taken in the vineyard, the better the wines have become. The proof really is in the pudding.

From The Producer
The fruit is handpicked and whole bunched pressed using a gentle champagne press cycle. No enzymes or sulphur are used at the press tray and the juice is oxidatively handled to get rid of oxidative enzymes early on in the winemaking process.
The wine is left at ambient and transferred to barrel with full solids, with minimal sulphur added. Fermentation occurs using wild yeast and it is then left unsulfured to the following summer at which time most of the wine has completed full malolactic fermentation .
A minimal amount of sulphur is added and left in barrel for a total of 6 months where it is racked off gross lees and transferred to tank. The resulting wine is bottled using no finings and minimal filtration.

I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine.
