Plastic cork. Mid gold, with a brassy tinge. Super nose: rich and full with ripe orchard fruit, apple crumble, a touch of tropical fruit and the slightest hint of honey. In the mouth, it's remarkably similar to the nose: lots of creamy, ripe apple and pear, then a great depth of almost umami savouriness with sage and a touch of grapefruit sourness. Very mouthfilling, and great length.

Another spectacular showing. Pinot Gris at its finest! Compelling sous-bois and umami notes, and imparting the impression of botrytis. Attention grabbing mouthfeel, luxurious finish.

Plastic cork. 13% abv Mid brassy gold. Rich, ripe nose: buttery, with lots of ripe pear fruit, pineapple, banana skins. Full, ripe palate. Definitely lots of richness, but acidity and a touch of tannic sourness stop it from feeling particularly sweet. Very mouthfilling with good length. Excellent mature pinot gris.

This bottle showed beautifully! Compelling textures, weight, and depth. Secondary and tertiary nuance throughout. Poised elegance.

A lot of sweetness still present, very classy, had aged gracefully. What a treat!
