Hidden Sea Pinot Grigio 2026
AU$23, 13.5% alcohol, screwcap, Limestone Coast.
This has the cool, crisp nature of pinot gris sewn up nicely but then it also has good flesh. You’re on a winner here. Pear, apple, chalk and citrus characters combine to entirely positive effect. It’s well-priced, well-made, and well-flavoured.
