Tasting Notes:

Bright and expressive, this wine opens with juicy apricot, ripe nectarine, and crisp green pear, all lightly framed by old French oak. The palate is sleek and textured, offering depth without weight. It finishes crisp and dry, with a lifted acidity and a subtle hint of spice that lingers just long enough to invite another sip. Score: 93/100, 5 Stars (Sam Kim- Wine Orbit)

Vintage Conditions: 

The growing season for this vintage saw an early budburst with high growing degree days resulting in the earliest harvest ever. 2024 provided some challenging growing conditions but good canopy and vineyard management and many extra hours amongst the canopy in the lead up to harvest produced clean ripe fruit at harvest time. Great flavours colour and balance across the varietals.

The harvested fruit was processed quickly into tank to retain the vibrant aromas and fresh acidity. The juice is then split into two parcels, one of which is run into older French oak barrels, while the other remains in tank. The tank portion is fermented slow and cool to retain the varietal characters of Pinot Gris, while the barrel ferment is undertaken at warm temperatures to build palate weight. The wines are aged on yeast lees for nine months before blending, fining and filtration.
