Tasting Notes

This year's Pinot Gris Windsbuhl is the driest they have ever made, which yields a floral, peachy, complex nose with has hints of nutmeg. The palate has the spicy, broad entry you would expect from a Pinot Gris, but then turns to a mineral, taught, peppery and citrus fruit precision. There is a wonderful smoky precision to this wine that unfurls again on the long finish, showing what great promise there is to this wine. Superb.

Farr Vintners, Farr Tasting, May 2016

An elegant version, with racy acidity and a lacy texture carrying the finely woven mix of yellow peach, spring blossom, orange zest and Brazil nut. Long and minerally on the mouthwatering, spiced finish. Drink now through 2027.
