About the Wine

The Cape to Cape range are West Cape Howe's approachable and affordable wines ready for drinking now, or in the near future.

This is the wine to drink when you're not sure what wine to drink. It's an easy-going, easy-drinking white wine that is fantastically versatile.

It's everything you love in a Pinot Grigio - crisp, fresh, dry and smashable - and an absolute steal at under $20. Can't look past this one!

About West Cape Howe

Since its inception in 1997 West Cape Howe has been producing some of Western Australia's most undervalued wines.

It is owned by four local families but the figurehead and senior winemaker is WA industry legend Gavin Berry.

Their home and winery can be found at the Langton Vineyard in Mt Barker, in the Great Southern region. Riesling, Shiraz, Cabernets Sauvignon and Franc are the stars of their range.

Additional Info

From the Producer

Our Pinot Grigio has been sourced from three vineyards across the south west of Western Australia; from Mt Barker, Frankland and Margaret River. The later season meant the fruit ripened in generally cooler conditions, preserving the Pinot Grigio’s delicate fruit characters.

A fresh and very well weighted wine. It is not overtly fruity but very textural and mouth filling with red apple and brown pear flavours. There’s a touch of drying astringency as a small component was given skin contact before fermentation and the slight ‘chalkiness’ contributes to its good length of flavour.

Blend : Pinot Grigio (100%)
Closure : Screw Cap
Drink Until : 2024

The Real Review

"A fresh and inviting nose of confectionery to go with the fresh pale colour, a note of spiky nettles coming in later. The wine is delicate and brightly fresh, vibrant and clean, with crispness and vigour on palate, the finish cleansing and dry." - Huon Hooke (The Real Review)

FaQs

Do I have to order in dozens? No, please mix it up! You can order wines in any quantity and variation you like. You can order 1 bottle or 50. We challenge you to make the ultimate mixed pack of wine!

Are there volume discounts? No, our pricing is designed to be the best in market already - no marking up and then discounting down! For very large orders (weddings, etc) we are open to negotiating though. Just give us a call.

Do we price match? Yes, within reason. Everyday low & consistent pricing is something we strongly believe in. We want our customers to feel confident they are always getting the best price. If you see a price lower somewhere else let us know and we'll consider matching it. We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.

Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.

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. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.

Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.

Can I special order a wine you do not sell? If it’s doable, then we’ll make it happen. Just contact us directly via phone, chat or email and we’ll find out for you right away. Please note that in most cases special orders such as these will need to be in full case lots (6 or 12 bottles).
