2026 Project - Pinot Gris

Colour Brilliant, pale yellow straw with blush tints

Nose Fresh fruit aromatics of pear, lychee and pink grapefruit with lifted floral notes of honeysuckle and jasmine.

Palate A textured and mouth-filling style showing aromatic lift of orange blossom and honeydew, combined with body and mouthfeel garnered from partial barrel fermentation and maturation on lees. Notes of dried herbs, chalk, and ginger spice add further texture and complexity, and ensure a dry, mineral finish.

A portion of the blend (33%) was fermented in seasoned French oak barriques to contribute texture and mouthfeel, whilst the balance was fermented cool in stainless steel to retain bright aromatics.
