Mount Towrong Winery - Grillo
Grillo is a white grape variety native to the island of Sicily. Grown at Mildura, the 2024 Grillo has aromas of papaya, guava & honeydew melon. On the palate, it shows flavours of golden peach & saltbush, finishing with a fresh, clean minerality.
Situated at 600 metres above sea level with direct views of Mount Macedon and Mount Towrong, this cool climate vineyard enjoys moderate seasonal rainfall. Terracing the vineyard has allowed them to maximise the use of the gentle slopes and by practising sustainable farming techniques, they have been able to harvest high quality grapes with a low yield.
The Vineyard is farmed with the use of organic composts with no pesticides or herbicides used. Winter prunings are mulched back into the mid rows. All vines are cane pruned and grapes are handpicked.
