Awarded 5 Stars, Michael Cooper, Dec 2022
"Certified organic, this is one of the region’s most distinctive Pinot Gris. The impressive 2022 vintage was estate-grown and mostly handled in stainless steel tanks, but 40 per cent of the blend was fermented with indigenous yeasts and lees-aged for three months in seasoned French oak puncheons. Bright, light lemon/green, it is invitingly scented and mouthfilling, with generous stonefruit flavours, hints of spices, balanced acidity, and very good complexity, vigour and harmony. Already delicious, it is a fully dry style" Michael Cooper, Dec 2022
Awarded 92/100 Points, Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier
"Fragrant with a core of green skinned pear then apple, some pressed white flowers and a core of dry stone minerality with a light leesy autolysis note. Pure, ripe, fruity and fleshy textures touch the palate first, medium+ acidity with gently warming alcohol. Nice weight with a satin cream texture" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier

"The 2022 Pinot Gris is rich and expansive. It does not rely on residual sugar for its completely dry, full, textural interpretation of the grape. It is ripe and round with fermentation in older French barriques softening its edges and developing its curves. The wine is not heavy, however. Marlborough’s cooler climate provides a crip conclusion, freshness of fruit and floral notes amid the variety’s natural spice, ginger and pear flavors. Produced from organic fruit and showing a sensitive hand, this is a Pinot Gris I can get behind. Approachable from the off" Rebecca Gibb, Master of Wine, Vinous, Apr 2023
