2011 vintage. Dry, rich, viscous, nice secondary floral behind the tropical notes.

A creamy & smooth but, no drab balance with enough but not over the top flavours, very fresh glass after glass. Great for having on its own. Will buy another bottle!

Delicious. Balanced. Smooth. Creamy. Juicy. Complex without being OTT. Not too limey. Best Pinot Gris we’ve found.

Beautiful fruity flavour and infinitely drinkable.
Not your typical pinot, but instead the interesting balance of a Pinot Gris.
Will definitely buy again!!

Great quaffing, bags of flavour but not sickly sweet.
