Ad Hoc Nitty Gritty Pinot Grigio 2025
Ad Hoc Nitty Gritty is a crisp, cool-climate Pinot Grigio from Pemberton in Western Australia, one of the country's most exciting cool-climate wine regions. Fresh, aromatic, and beautifully precise, it delivers classic Pinot Grigio character with a distinctly Australian sense of purity and drinkability. A standout white wine from our Australian Wines collection. Why You'll Love It Pemberton sits in the far south-west of Western Australia, where the cool maritime climate and ancient karri forest soils produce white wines of exceptional freshness and precision. Ad Hoc is the approachable, everyday label from Woodlands Wines, and Nitty Gritty is a textbook example of what cool-climate Pinot Grigio can achieve in Australia: lifted aromatics, crunchy acidity, and a long, precise finish that makes it endlessly food-friendly and genuinely hard to put down. Vineyard & Production Sourced from Pemberton in Western Australia, where the cool climate and well-drained soils produce grapes of natural freshness and aromatic intensity. The wine is crafted to preserve the variety's delicate fruit character and bright acidity, with a clean, precise winemaking approach that lets the cool-climate terroir speak clearly. Tasting Notes Pale straw in colour with a faint green hue. The nose is lifted and aromatic with pear, red apple, and lime zest, complemented by subtle notes of white blossom, honeysuckle, and a touch of musk. On the palate, it is fresh and lively with flavours of pear, green apple, and citrus, a fine mineral thread, and hints of dried herbs. Light-bodied yet textural, with crunchy acidity and a long, precise finish with lingering citrus, pear skin, and a subtle saline edge. Perfect Pairings Perfect with seafood, oysters, prawns, and fresh salads. Also excellent alongside light pasta, Asian dishes, goat's cheese, and grilled fish. The Blend 100% Pinot Grigio
Famille Guibert Combe Calcaire Blanc 2023
' In 1971, Veronique and Aime Guibert bought a Mas (farmhouse) and abandoned mill in the heart of a beautiful, wild valley through which flowed the Gassac river. After consulting Prof. Henri Enjalbert they planted vines in clearings in the middle of 4,000 hectares of forest - he was convinced they had the ''terroir'' to produce a Grand Cru of the future. The first vintage of their flagship red was produced in 1978 from roughly 80% Cabernet Sauvignon. By 1982, a respected French wine guide described Mas de Daumas Gassac as the Chateau Lafite of the Languedoc. The Rose Frizant was created in 1981, also from the younger Cabernet vines. Today, the children of the Guibert family manage the estate, storing their harvests in an old cellar underneath the original mill. The five brothers have continued to fine tune the Mas de Daumas Gassac's Grand Vin and broaden the range with varietal wines and blends that offer great value for money under their Moulin de Gassac label.
