Warm subtle stonefruit flavours with hints of citrus help keep this Pinot Gris soft textured with mouth-watering complexity, without being sweet and too overpowered by light honey notes.

90 Point Rated & 4.5 Star Rated - Sam Kim Wine Orbit
"Varietals expressive and inviting, the bouquet shows apricot, mango, ripe pear and subtle spice aromas, followed by an attractively fruity palate that’s ripe and lingering. Youthful, bright and elegantly flavoursome with a lengthy comforting finish."
16.5/20 - Raymond Chan Wine Review
"Bright, even, pale straw-yellow colour. The nose is moderately full, packed with delicate aromas of white floral melded with pear, quince and a light spice dusting. Medium-full bodied, off-dry to taste, sweet pear and quince paste nuances accompanied by white pepper dusting and white blossoms, unfolding a hint of honey. The wine is flavoursome with generous fruit, delicate spice and floral added interest. The is a generous Pinot Gris shows succulent pear and quince with honey and spice details."
4 Star Rated - Peter Saunders
"Immaculate in its cleanness, tasting near dry; a delicious wine unfolding its appeal."
