Hungerford Hill New Release – 2008 Victoria Pinot Gris
Pinot Gris continues to be a popular choice in the Australian wine scene. Five years ago, there were less that 200 tonnes of grapes produced. Today there are close to 3000 tonnes and winemakers are unable to keep up with market demand.
Hungerford Hill continues to play a lead role in Pinot Gris, this 2008 new release follows the well reputed vintages of 2006 & 2007.
In the glass this new Hungerford Hill release is a very light straw colour with a youthful green hue. It boasts fresh aromas of citrus and pear, while the palate offers some distinct savoury characters and a crisp finish full of delicate acidity thanks to the cool climate fruit. Unlike the French style which is richer and oilier, this Pinot Gris is crisp, fresh and savoury.
“Gris, which means grey in French, refers to the colour of the Pinot Gris grapes. Wines made from Pinot Gris often have a slight coppery hue. They have a delicately perfumed aroma with flavours ranging from fresh pear through to tropical fruits. Pinot Gris is similar to Chardonnay in that it has good palate flavour and weight. Perhaps this is not surprising considering they both have similar lineage” comments Michael Hatcher, Winemaker Hungerford Hill.
Pinot Gris is an excellent partner to food due to its good palate weight yet subtle varietal character. The fresh styles go well with oysters, shellfish, white fish and garden salads whereas the richer wines suit salmon, ocean trout and white meats.

Clare riesling triumphs in Australasia wine awards
A Clare Valley riesling has been named Australasian Wine of the Year after a blind taste-off involving top-rating Australian and New Zealand wines.
The Penna Lane Wines 2004 Riesling is the first white wine to take out the major prize in the 11-year history of the Winestate awards.
It’s a fairy tale success for joint owners Ray and Lynette Klavins / Stephen and Stacy Stafford-Brookes who established their winery at an old derelict farm south of Clare in the mid 1990s.
More than 10,000 wines have been tasted by Winestate judges over the past 12 months in the largest competition of its kind involving Australian and New Zealand wines. Only those rated with 4.5 or five stars went into the final taste-off.
Winestate publisher Peter Simic said the 2004 Penna Lane riesling nudged out Kaesler’s The Bogan 2005 Shiraz for the top award.
“It’s no easy task nominating one wine above so many others, but the judges were unanimous in declaring this a superb example of a world class riesling,” Mr Simic said.
“Significantly, all five top rieslings came from the Clare Valley and nearby Eden Valley regions of South Australia.”
Regional strengths also shone through for several other varietals, with the Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale dominating the shiraz category, the Hunter Valley semillon, while New Zealand was again the stand out for sauvignon blanc and pinot noir.
In the fortified category, Morris Wines of Rutherglen won all top five placings in an unprecedented performance that firmly stamps its position as Australia’s leading fortified producer. The Victorian winery has now won the title eight times in the past 10 years.
Chairman of judges, winemaker Stephen John, said the merlot category was the biggest disappointment with only two wines winning the qualifying 4.5 or five stars.
“Have we totally lost direction with this variety? It’s difficult to comment any further,” Mr John said.
Kevin Glastonbury, the senior red winemaker at Yalumba Wines in the Barossa Valley was named Australian Winemaker of the Year for his consistency in achieving the largest number of high ranking wines during the tasting period.
Yalumba Wines also took the title of Wine Company of the Year for best overall performance.
