2023 Clare Valley Pinot Gris
A perfect mix of orange zest, ginger spice and ripe pear combined with notes of vanilla and baked pastry. The palate is richly flavoured and delightfully textured, carrying the opulent spice poached pear, quince and lemon honey flavours through to a clean crisp finish.
Vineyards
Two estate vineyards combine to make this Pinot Gris. One is located in the southern end of the valley and has soils with a heavier brown loam content and westerly aspect. The other is located in the north, with red soils and an easterly aspect. Both combine to produce complex fruity flavour and a rich fruit profile, while retaining a sense of delicacy and lightness.
Vintage
A cooler and wetter than average season due to an extended La Nina pattern provided a challenging growing season for all, yet the best vineyards still shone through. With the cooler conditions in Spring, budburst was delayed considerably, combined with substantial rain this proved challenging for many growers and required a change in tactics over the growing season.
