Winemaker’s Notes:
A stunning, easy drinking Pinot Gris! Lots of fun delicate aromas to this wine – it sort of checks all the boxes! There are orchard floral notes and orchard fruit – then it gets a little more complex with hints of gooseberry and the beeswax comes in at the end adding some structure and depth to the aromatics. It carries to the palate, nice and light – refreshing with 10g/L residual sugar.
