It's well and truly mainstream now, but Pinot G was one of Australia's first alternative varieties. Victoria was where it all started, and the King Valley, with its many Italian families, has helped launch it to stardom. Meet some of the pioneers, plus, experience the incredible quality of the 2017 Cobram Estate Hojiblanca Reserve and Picual Reserve Extra Virgin Olive Oils.
Chrismont's Pizzini family are one of the variety's greatest champions with their 2017 vintage showing the style's typically bright, vibrant characters. It features a generous core of white and green fruit and bright lemony acidity.
Redbank have gone down the French road with their 2017 Sunday Morning Pinot Gris that's juicy and plush with a rounded texture showing layers of white and yellow fruit, bright, crisp acidity and a generous spicy finish.
The Cobram Estate Hojiblanca Reserve Extra Virgin Olive Oil 2017 is sweet and creamy, making it ideal for risotto, marinating meat or fish for the BBQ, dipping bread and as a healthy replacement for butter.
The Cobram Estate Picual Reserve Extra Virgin Olive Oil 2017 features balanced levels of bitter and spicy sensations, which makes it perfect for tomato based dishes, salads, pastas, bruschetta, and paella.
