Tasting Notes 

Elegantly fragrant, our Pinot Gris displays aromas of poached pear, fig and stone fruit. Beautifully rounded with a hint of spicy complexity it offers a delicious fullness with a silky long finish.

Reviews

Cameron Douglas, World of Wine: No mistaking the varietal signature of fresh pears and apples, a soft and light almost gingery spice and sweet air mineral quality laced with a whipser of lees. Quite exotic on the palate with fruit flavours and intensity to reflect the bouquet. Plenty of refreshing acidity and core of fruit. 92 Points.

Sam Kim, Wine Orbit: Pristine and elegantly fragrant, showing apricot, poached pear, fig and floral aromas on the nose with a hint of spicy complexity. It's juicy and beautifully rounded on the palate, displaying lovely weight and silky texture, finishing long and delightfully flavoursome. At its best: now to 2023. Rating: 93 Points = 5 Stars.

Technical Notes

Our Pinot Gris grapes were hand-harvested in the Moutere by the St Pauli team and handled in tank. Grapes were hand-picked early in the morning to protect delicate flavours and kept in a cold store overnight before pressing and destemming. Keeping the grapes cold helps retain important acidity and protects the delicate flavours, skins and pulp. This wine was kept in tank for five months before being filtered with fine earth in preparation for bottling.
