Joe Grilli, Primo Estate’s owner and winemaker, named his Pinot Grigio 'd’Elena' as he planted his single hectare of Pinot Grigio vines the week his daughter Elena was born in 1998.
In the glass: Medium lemon straw with a faint bronze hue.
On the nose: Rich, lifted poached pear, stonefruit, lees and florals.
On the palate: Much more in the richer Gris style. Shows the usual Primo Estate generosity with strong pear and apple varietals and vibrant lemon-like acidity in a mouth-filling, textural style.
