93/100
Ultra-creamy Pinot Gris with ripe stone fruit, hot croisant and lifted spicy flavours. Very seductive wine with a finely-tuned balance between fruit/alcohol sweetness and pleasantly drying tannins. An exotic and unusually flavoursome Pinot Gris that gives a firm nod in the direction of Alsace.
