Mid yellow gold. Powerful, spicy pinot gris nose - tropical fruits in abundance and some toastiness. Quite rich on the attack, though not overfull. Good mouthfilling ripe pinot gris fruit, but not at all overdone. Quite elegant and very dry. Very Good Indeed.

12.5% abv Mid yellow gold. Very powerful pinot gris nose with huge mango fruit and a touch of cinammon. Full, rich attack. Weighty, creamy, tropical fruit palate which dries towards the finish and develops an interesting spiciness after. Very Good/Very Good Indeed.

Medium straw in appearance. A good pinot gris nose; and not an overpowering one. An interesting lemony note on the nose. Quite light on the attack - fresh and clean. Develops well on the palate: really quite elegant - surprisingly so for such a budget wine. Nice spice notes - almost reminiscent of pepper-smoked mackerel. Decent finish with fair length. Very Good.
