TASTING NOTES

This wine displays a lot of varietal Pinot Gris characters of pear, with some lifted floral aromatics compliment by some background spice and ginger with a hint of nutmeg, making it ideal for spicy Thai / Asian food.

The palate is textured and balanced from lees contact but still holding good acidity to give a nice clean finish.

WINE MAKING

Winemaking The fruit was picked in as a single parcel. The fruit is then pressed, and the free run juice is cold settled prior to being racked and fermented cool. Post racking the juice bottoms went to a separate tank to be fermented warm and allowed to develop a little funkiness and complexity. After a short period on lees whilst being stirred post fermentation, the wine is then racked, the juice bottoms blended back in and stabalised to make a fresh, balanced, fruit driven, refreshing Pinot Gris
