APOGEE Alto Pinot Gris 2020
"The 2020 version is relatively pale and offers very inviting varietal aromas of pear, honey, flowering herbs, patisserie and spice. It’s rich and ripe, but it has more finesse than many other pinot gris wines."
Ralph Kyte-Powell, The Real Review, March 2021.

"Benchmark cool-climate pinot gris that sits firmly on the Alsace side of the gris/grigio spectrum".
Winsor Dobbin, On the Road Again, January 2021.
Wine Club Price $39.50

APOGEE Alto Pinot Noir 2019
100% Single vineyard. Alc.13.5%. 100% French oak.
"A wine for hedonists. Succulent black cherries and redcurrants tumble out of the glass and into your mouth, followed by a flood of fine savoury tannins that flows across the tongue". Max Allen, Australian Financial Review.   
Wine Club Price $56.00

ROSÉ DE SAIGNÉE 
There are two ways to introduce the crucial pink hue to sparkling rosé
•    Assemblage: this is the simple process, which sees a small amount of red wine (usually Pinot Noir) added to the blend, usually with the guideline of 7% to 15%. The amount added will depend on the shade of rosé desired.
•    Saignée (which translates to English as ‘bleeding’ method): the less common and more serious process used by APOGEE.  It is a more labour intensive way to produce rosé Champagne/sparkling in that the colour from the skins of the red grapes is released into the blend (see picture) during the pressing. Importantly, the skin contact process also releases tannins, which give the wine extra mouth-feel. APOGEE also uses a small proportion of pinot noir red wine to adjust colour in some years, and in our commitment to single vineyard production, the red wine, of course, comes from our vineyard.
