Classic Pinot Gris aromatics of pear, quince, and red apples supported by floral notes and a dusting of spice. The stonefruit carries through to the palate which has creamy acidity, and a long lingering finish.
Cane pruned on VSP trellising. Pinot Gris flourishes on the free draining river banks of our Reynolds block. Natural balance between vine growth and fruit maturity provides richly scented fruit with deep flavours.
Our Pinot Gris fruit was harvested throughtout the cool April evenings of 2014, transferred to the winery where it underwent temperature controlled fermentation (12 - 1 degres celcius) in stainless steel tanks using Alsatian yeast cultures to enhance Pinot Gris aromas and flavours. Post ferment maturation on fine lees allowed us to build a refined texture and palate weight into this wine.
4 Stars Raymond Chan
Bright, light straw-yellow colour with pale golden hues, lighter on the edge. The nose is moderately concentrated with steely and refreshing aromas of white and yellow stonefruits, along with subtle notes of fresh herbs and exotic florals, unfolding minerally lees notes. The aromatics build in depth with aeration. Dryish to taste and medium-bodied, the palate possesses flavours of peach and yellow stonefruits along with notes of exotic tropical fruits and honeysuckle, with mineral nuances emerging. The mouthfeel is bright and energetic with light fruit extract and phenolic textures, and fresh, lacy acidity. As the wine flows, sweet fruit and floral notes unfold and carry to an elegant, lingering finish.
