Tasting Notes
Our classic Pinot Gris—luscious ripe fruit created scents of orange blossoms and vanilla mingled with tropical fruit aromas followed by a rich and supple mid-palate.
Winemaker Notes
Select vineyard blocks were chosen for fruit producing rich tropical fruit flavours in aroma and mid-palate. Careful skin contact brought a touch of colour. 51% percent barrel-fermented in older Tokaj barrels and new (17%) Eastern European. The remainder of the juice was cool fermented in small stainless steel vats. Barrels were held sur lies for 6 months with batonnage every fortnight bringing a creamy texture to the palate.
