2024 Main Divide Pinot Gris
A rich, luscious Alsatian styled Pinot Gris.
Bright straw colour with a watery hue. Enthralling the olfactory senses are exotic scents of ripe pear, lychee, rosewater and musk with some baked apple and ginger spice notes also evident. Rich, luscious ripe pear, red apple, honeysuckle and musk flavours engulf the mouth. Flashes of lychee and ginger spice lie underneath. Viscous in it’s texture, it has a fresh off dry finish that’s long and enveloping.
Drink over the next 1-2 years.
Alc. 13.5%
Other Reviews….
A hat tip to the classic style from Alsace, harvested at optimal ripeness to deliver a range of natural flavours and white spice with fresh white nectarine and pear, a satin texture, refreshing acid line and distinctive mouthfeel. The fruit is gently pressed then fermented in stainless steel tanks at a cool temperature to retain varietal purity and freshness. The wine is then lees aged (sur lie), prior to bottling. A decent acid line and fine tannins mouthfeel add length and complexity. Best drinking from 2024 through 2027.
