✨ Technical Specifications
While Chateau Tanunda is legendary for its monumental Barossa Valley red wines and historic 19th-century bluestone estate, the Private Selection Pinot Grigio showcases the winery's modern versatility and skill with elegant white varietals. Sourced from select premium vineyards across South Australia, where cooler night temperatures help preserve the grape's natural acidity and delicate aromatics, this wine is crafted in a fresh, vibrant style. It undergoes cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks to retain its bright fruit profile, offering a delightful counterpoint to the estate's heavy reds. This expression reflects the Geber family's commitment to showcasing the diverse terroirs of South Australia, bringing a crisp, contemporary touch to a portfolio steeped in over a century of winemaking tradition.
