2025 Montalto Pinot Gris x 6 bottles

The 2025 Montalto Pinot Gris is a beautifully expressive Mornington Peninsula white that showcases the richness, texture and cool-climate elegance the region is renowned for. Crafted from estate vineyards across Tuerong and Red Hill, the wine reflects Montalto’s refined winemaking approach, balancing generous fruit concentration with freshness and saline mineral precision. The maritime climate of the Mornington Peninsula delivered excellent natural acidity and aromatic lift in the 2025 vintage, producing a Pinot Gris with both depth and finesse.

The nose reveals baked pear, white peach and lychee layered with rosewater, orange blossom and subtle cinnamon spice. On the palate, it is richly textured yet beautifully balanced with juicy orchard fruit, bright citrus acidity and a gentle saline edge that carries the wine through a long, layered finish. Notes of almond, cashew and lemon sherbet unfold with impressive complexity and refinement, finishing fresh, creamy and wonderfully food-friendly with classic Mornington Peninsula character.

Ben’s Recommendation:
The 2025 Montalto Pinot Gris is a polished and beautifully textural Pinot Gris — expressive, layered and packed with cool-climate charm. Perfect with pork belly, roast chicken, creamy pasta, Asian-inspired dishes or washed rind cheeses. Serve lightly chilled and enjoy now or over the next 5–7 years.
