The Merricks Pinot Gris comes from the same celebrated single-vineyard site as the dual 96-point Merricks Chardonnay — Steve Flamsteed's artisanal approach expressing the coastal maritime character of Merricks through a beautifully textured, food-friendly Pinot Gris.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt represents:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ebeautifully textured coastal Mornington Peninsula single-vineyard Pinot Gris from one of the region's most celebrated artisanal producers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteve Flamsteed's Merricks expression — the same coastal maritime site as the dual 96-point Chardonnay, now in Pinot Gris\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eoutstanding value for a food-friendly, maritime mineral-driven Mornington Peninsula single-vineyard Pinot Gris at $35\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWine Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariety:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pinot Gris\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVineyard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Merricks Single Vineyard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mornington Peninsula, VIC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Garagiste\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWinemaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Steve Flamsteed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eServing Temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10–14°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCellaring:\u003c\/strong\u003e Drink now – 2029\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFood Pairings\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrilled fish with lemon and herbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePan-seared scallops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoast pork with apple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThai and Vietnamese cuisine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft and washed-rind cheeses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAs an aperitif\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy We Love It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is beautifully textured, elegantly structured coastal \u003cstrong\u003eMornington Peninsula single-vineyard Pinot Gris\u003c\/strong\u003e from one of the region's most celebrated artisanal producers — the maritime mineral precision of Merricks in a food-friendly, vibrant format.\u003cbr\u003eAt \u003cstrong\u003e$35\u003c\/strong\u003e, it delivers outstanding Mornington Peninsula Pinot Gris character and coastal elegance at an exceptional everyday price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA must-have for lovers of textural, food-friendly Pinot Gris and the finest Mornington Peninsula white wine.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e👉 Secure your bottles now and discover why Garagiste is one of Mornington Peninsula's benchmark producers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garagiste","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51109275861294,"sku":"LV-GARAGISTE-MERRICKSPG-2025-750ML","price":35.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0950\/5010\/5134\/files\/2025-Garagiste-Merricks-Pinot-Gris.png?v=1780988029"}],"url":"https:\/\/liquidvibe.com.au\/collections\/australian-white-wines.oembed","provider":"liquidvibe.com.au","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
