Hoddles Creek Estate Pinot Blanc (Box of 6)

The palate is tense, bright, and beautifully textural, opening with green apple, quince, and pear skin carried by the cool‑climate acidity of the Upper Yarra. A mid‑palate of white pepper, citrus pith, and faint almond reflects both the partial maceration and the old‑oak component, giving the wine a subtle phenolic grip without heaviness. The lees ageing adds a fine, powdery weight, while the natural ferment keeps everything taut and energetic. The finish is long, pithy, and mineral‑lined, tapering with nashi, crushed stone, and a flicker of spice.
