"Splendidly fruited and immediately appealing, the bouquet shows fresh pear, apple, rockmelon and lemon zest aromas, followed by a juicy palate that is beautifully rounded and smooth. It is up front and very tasty with youthful fruit flavours, finishing long and refreshing" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Aug 2019
A mouth quenching, dry Pinot Gris filled with aromas of pear and exotic spice. The palate has a crunchy, crisp texture and has great complexity. Flavours of mandarin peel, nectarine and touches of orange blossom come through with a twist of spice on the finish.
A warm, dry Summer lead to an early harvest with pristine fruit, small berries, and great concentration. This pinot gris was harvested in the early hours of the morning to preserve fruit purity and varietal character. After a long, cool fermentation, the wine was aged on fine yeast lees for 8 weeks to allow the natural texture of the wine to develop.
Food Pairing: Sip solo or pair with Asian fare and slightly smokey foods.
