Description
"The wine is instantly appealing on the nose showing poached pear, ripe stone fruit, rockmelon and floral characters, which lead to a fruit-expressive palate that is ripe and rounded, and finishes beautifully long and silky. It is pristine and inviting, and delectable to the finish. At its best: now to 2018." Sam Kim, Wine Orbit. July 2016
Yellow floral and fruits, clover honey and white smoke aromas dominate our Pinot Gris. This perfume carries through onto the off-dry palate, where the fruit concentration is played off by a chalky mineral texture which lends length and interest to the wine. As an aperitif, try with wedges of rock melon wrapped in prosciutto, or for the main it is a cinch with white meats and lightly spiced foods. Careful cellaring will reward with increased honeyed and savoury complexity.
