I’ve tried plenty of pinot gris and grigios in my time but I can not remember ever trying one from the Orange region of New South Wales. Actually, I have to admit, I didn’t even know they grew it out that way. If this is an example of what is available from the area, give me more please!
Dive your nose into the glass and you get pears, pears and more pears…and a touch of honey notes too. On the palate there a plenty of those pear flavours but that’s not all you get with this model. It’s a gris with cool bonus extras that present from the first sip to the last. It’s creamy, textural with excellent palate weight, but wait, there’s more. How would you like citrus flavours, delicate spice notes and a nice splash of acid adding to a pretty substantial finish? Well, you get those as well at no extra cost. It’s a Gris with more; providing style, substance and genuine interest. I suggest you race to your local dealer now!
