Made as structured dry wines (Alsace AOC), off-dry and sumptuous late-harvest sweet (vendange tardive, sélection de grains nobles). Lighter and crisper in Italy as Pinot Grigio (Veneto, Friuli). Also in Germany (Grauburgunder), Hungary (Szürkebarát) and Oregon. A grey mutation of Pinot Noir.

The wine region of Adelaide Hills

South Australian showcase of fresh high-altitude whites: signature Sauvignon Blanc as white king (~30%) — lively and crisp with notes of grapefruit, passion fruit, cut grass and a mineral touch, taut acidity. Racy Chardonnay (citrus, peach, minerality), airy Pinot Noir (cherry, raspberry, undergrowth) and spicy Shiraz as complement. Renowned traditional-method sparklers. Hills east of Adelaide (Mount Lofty Ranges, 400-650 m), among the coolest in Australia.


The wine region of Australie du Sud

Cradle of the great Australian Shiraz: powerful, sun-drenched reds with notes of blackberry, candied plum, pepper, chocolate and eucalyptus, ample tannins and vibrant fruit (Barossa, McLaren Vale). Firm, minty Cabernet Sauvignon on Coonawarra (terra rossa). Dry, lemony Riesling from Clare and Eden Valley, straight and taut. Fresh Sauvignon and Chardonnay from Adelaide Hills.
