A must try for Pinot Grigio fans, this top notch white is from Neil Pike's highly acclaimed winery in the cool climate Adelaide Hills. There the grapes only just ripen ' delivering piercing freshness, juicy tropical fruit and superb intensity.
Adelaide Hills is among South Australia's most up and coming areas. 'Adelaide Hills produces Sauvignons with Marlborough style vibrancy but more tropical fruit,' writes the Sunday Times. And it's not just with Sauvignon that the region is excelling. With its pretty rolling hills, cool clean air and sometimes downright chilly temperatures, Adelaide Hills is as far from classic sun soaked Australia as you can imagine. One new winemaker rapidly making a name for himself is the highly acclaimed Neil Pike. Critic James Halliday awarded Neil's winery 5 Stars, noting, 'The current releases from Pikes are, without doubt, the best yet.' This characterful white is superb with prawns in a spicy coconut sauce, Thai curry and other Oriental dishes.
