There are few tales as impressive as that of Lethbridge Wines. Ray Nadeson and Maree Collis were both successful medical researchers before succumbing to their desire to create a vineyard and winery in Geelong. They planted vines on their own rootstocks, built a straw-bale winery and house, and farmed the land according to biodynamic beliefs. Their wines are powerful, structured, pure and long-lived.

Fruit for the 2025 Lethbridge Pinot Gris was sourced from vineyards in Henty and Geelong. Henty is one of the coolest GIs in Victoria and consistently produces low yields of high-quality fruit. The Geelong sites which sit on shist, clay and limestone producer larger yields of highly aromatic fruit so comprise a larger portion of the blend this year. The wine was vinified in small batches, with some pressed off skins immediately and others given up to two days of skin contact. Fermented with indigenous yeasts before maturation in foudre and large-format oak, it’s an intensely aromatic Gris of tension, texture and fantastic length.

“Fermented and matured in stainless, wood and amphora. A light, bright colour. Another aromatic gris from Lethbridge with its aromas of pear, honey and spice. It's ripe and flavourful on the palate, but the key here is just how bright the acidity is, keeping this delicious wine balanced and fresh. Drink now and over the next two to three years.”
