42 Degrees South Pinot Grigio 750mL — Pear, Texture, Tasmanian Lift
🍐 Fresh, bright and seriously easy to drink, this is Pinot Grigio with a little more shape than the usual fridge white. 42 Degrees South brings together juicy pear fruit, cool-climate freshness and a soft, rounded texture that makes it feel polished without losing its easy appeal.
Made in Tasmania under the 42 Degrees South label from Frogmore Creek, this is a clean, fruit-driven white built for freshness and drinkability. The style leans crisp and dry, but there is enough generosity through the palate to give it more presence than a lean, overly sharp Grigio.
Pear and lychee lead the way, followed by delicate tropical fruit and a gentle creamy texture that gives the wine a smoother finish. It is bright enough for warm afternoons, light enough for easy pouring, and structured enough to hold up properly with food.
At 13.5% ABV, it has enough weight to feel generous while still staying bright and clean.
