"This Pinot Gris is not as you know it, light orange/brown in colour with baked apple, citrus peel, cake spice and potpourri aromas, it's beautifully weighted and textured on the palate displaying robust mouthfeel backed by fine tannins, finishing long and pleasingly dry. At its best: now to 2025" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2023
Peaches and cream on the nose with a hint of liquorice and spice. On the palate there’s a tropicana party with pineapple, mango and passionfruit. A smooth tannin structure gives the wine weight and length. Drink slightly chilled with friends, or even people you don’t really know.
