2024 Kooyong Beurrot Pinot Gris

The Beurrot is Kooyong’s take on serious Mornington Peninsula Pinot Gris, and it’s quietly one of the best in the country. Sourced from two estate blocks - including one tucked alongside their famed Meres vineyard—this wine is treated with the same hands-off, thoughtful approach that defines the Kooyong stable.

The 2024 vintage brought a mix of challenges and rewards, with some weather tightrope-walking in spring and a dry, focused harvest window in late summer. Yields were down, but quality was high - ideal conditions for capturing the detail and finesse this wine hangs its hat on.

Whole-bunch pressed and wild fermented in old French oak, the wine spent ten months on lees without stirring. That brings texture and gentle weight, but it never feels heavy. It’s all about shape and feel - pear skins, crisp acidity, a touch of grip - and a finish that’s long, clean and savoury.
