This is one serious Pinot Gris, there is depth and layers of tropical fruits with beautifully managed acidity and the slightest lees induced complexity.

A light yellow in the glass, the nose is aromatic with musk and banana nestled alongside ripe nectarine and quince.

Full bodied and delicious, this wine ticks all the boxes, there is a richness of fruit that echoes the nose with tropical fruit and quince, the finish gives the impression of residual sugar with balance that is reminiscent of the racy interplay between some of the great Alsace Pinot Gris that i have tried, worthy of it's price point and a wine to seek out.
