Tim Adams reports that the 2023 vintage was a challenging but rewarding growing season for Pinot Gris with the cooler than average temperatures resulting in a longer ripening period which delivered intensely flavoured fruit. The mild summer retaining good natural acidity which provided a refreshing, subtle citrus zest and a crisp crunchy fruit character to the palate.
Brilliant water like core with rose gold tinged edges. Delightful pear, red apple and musk aromas enchant the nostrils with hints of honeysuckle, rosewater and spice also evident. Incredibly moreish and slippery in its textural feel, the palate is layered with delicious pear, Jonathan apple and subtle honeysuckle flavours. Delicate musk, lychee and spice characters sit in the background. Brisk acidity finishing dry, long and supple. A classic example of Pinot Gris.
Drink over the next 1-2 years.
