Ocellus Pinot Grigio 2019

A peacock displays his feathers when it’s time to impress – and our California expert Clare Tooley thinks she may have found a wine world equivalent. Named after the colorful “eye” pattern on peacock feathers, Ocellus is a thrilling, great-value Pinot Grigio.

Ocellus hails from the premium Santa Lucia Highlands, one of the top districts along California’s Central Coast. The region’s mountainside vineyards benefit from brilliant sunshine (a key ripening factor), along with cooling breezes and fog from the nearby Monterey Bay. It’s the perfect climate for producing world-class whites, which are, unsurprisingly, the Santa Lucia Highlands’ speciality.

Thanks to the fantastic 2019 vintage, Ocellus is super-fresh and vibrant. It offers expressive white blossom and pear aromas, followed by a palate bursting with ripe tropical fruit. Let it strut in your glass as an aperitif, or serve with summer salads, seafood, creamy pastas, and much more.
