Corryton Burge Kith Adelaide Hills Pinot Gris is a Australian white wine made from grapes grown in the Adelaide Hills wine-growing region. It is part of their “Kith” range of wines.
Corryton Burge takes it name from the family’s historical property, Corryton Park Homestead, which was built in 1845. It is located in the gentle hills of the the Eden Valley wine-growing region to the north of Adelaide. The Eden Valley is bounded by the Barossa Valley wine region to the west and the Adelaide Hills wine region to the south. The estate is run by sixth generation winemakers, and siblings, Trent and Amelia Burge. Both Trent and Amelia are heavily involved in running the estate. Trent is in charge of all departments and day to day operations and Amelia is involved with wine marketing and as a member of the board of management. They also both have their own wine projects: Barossa Boy Wines and Amelia Burge Wines.
The name Burge will be familiar to most Australian wine lovers; Trent’s father is Barossa Valley wine-making legend Grant Burge. When Grant Burge sold Grant Burge brand, they retained all the real estate. The grapes are source from the Burge family’s 300 hectares of vines in southern and central Barossa and Adelaide Hills with a network of twenty growers further afield in non-Barossa regions. The wines are made at the family’s Illaparra winery by the talented winemaking team of Matthew Pellew, Andrew Cockram and Trent Burge. There are three ranges of wines: the Kith, Kin and Her Majesty’s Theatre.
The grapes for the Corryton Burge Kith Adelaide Hills Pinot Gris are sourced from the Burge family’s Early Rise vineyard in the Adelaide Hills. A vineyard that consistently delivers fruit with high acid and natural flavours. The wine is bottled early to retain the varietal freshness. A portion of this wine was stored in old French barriques for 8 weeks providing complexity and mouthfeel.
The wine labels feature a logo of the fabled griffin. The gates of the Corryton Park Homestead are protected by a pair of statues of the mythical griffin.
Suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
A fresh, vibrant wine to be shared with friends. Ripe pear and peach aromas are complimented by juicy, ripe pear flavours and a creamy mouthfeel, perfectly balanced with crisp acidity.
Pair with roasted chicken, truffle butter and bitter green salad or BBQ king prawns with dill and lemon butter.
