Di Giorgio Family Wines Kongorong Pinot Noir 2023 x 12

Description

Our family roots trace back to Abruzzo in central Italy. The 
Abruzzese were described as having their heads in the clouds 
and their feet in the ocean, due to the region being close to both 
mountain and coast. Today, we still have our feet firmly planted 
and our heads full of dreams. Free to let our imagination fly, this 
wine is our take on Pinot Noir

Winemaker’s Comment 
An ideal growing season combined with the cool maritime  
conditions of Kongorong in the Mount Gambier wine region saw 
this Pinot Noir offer great complexity. It was made using a variety 
of fermentation techniques  including natural, whole bunch and 
cold maceration.  This wine will continue to develop over the next 
5-10 years. Family favourite-crispy skin roast duck with wok 
tossed Asian vegetables.
