Perched atop Main Ridge overlooking Westernport Bay and the heads, the Musk Creek vineyard grows both Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir. Where Tussie Mussie enjoys a warmer, more sheltered location, Musk Creek is much cooler and ripens late. It’s perched at 180-210 metres altitude, where the persistent, cooling breeze from Bass Strait ensures the fruit stays fresh. Planted in 1994, the site produces bunches of tiny, pink berries and excellent acidity. The result is a deeper, more complex, mineral and spicy Gris than the one produced from Tussie Mussie. While Quealy’s two single-vineyard Gris hail from very different sites, the winemaking is almost identical. Almost. Here there is no French oak, with Quealy adding a little pressing wine to the free-run for structure and grip.
