Hesketh 2022 Rules of Engagement Pinot Grigio


 This might just be the wine bargain of the year so far. A zingy, zesty "drink now" pinot grigio from a family-owned winery. The Hesketh label uses fruit sourced from vineyards across South Australia and aims to match quality with value. This wine features grapes from the cooler coastal part of the Limestone Coast, and boy is it impressive drinking for the price. The Heskeths say their wines are sustainably grown with contemporary style. There is some really attractive natural acidity here in a wine that is consciously made in the fresh, zingy grigio style. Very clean, very crisp,  very enjoyable with both citrus and white stone fruit notes. Pair with pan-fried whitebait, or fish and chips. $15.  https://www.heskethwinecompany.com.au/
