TASTING NOTE: An arresting pinot gris, opulent but dry and vibrant. Lush stone fruit, racy acids and great purity are expressed on the palate. Impressively balanced, with a very stony character, stylish and elegant. Nervy with delicate notes of pear, rose hip, chalk and lime. Pleasurably textured with a light oiliness and delivering above the mean complexity. Excellent length. Enjoy now with soft cheeses or wait for the lovely honeyed character that bottle ageing will bring. Score - 92 (Sara d'Amato, winealign.com, April 13, 2017) Price $ 22.95
