Pinot Blanc 2023

$25.00

Tasting Notes

We’ve put a special focus on the Pinot Blanc variety by planting multiple sites to ensure we have the best quality fruit to create our best possible expression of the variety.

Light pale colour with delicate gold hues. The bouquet is lively with lifted aromas of citrus flower, musk and gooseberry. Dainty acidity accompanies grapefruit, lime and crunchy apple with hints of melon, leaving a fresh clean finish on the palate.

An ideal wine to accompany vegetarian, seafood and chicken dishes, handles spice.

What the reviewers are saying

Extremely pale in the glass. Savoury when swirled – minerals and bath salts, with just ripe pears, and spice lurking. A wine of tremendous energy driven by a precise line of citrus fruit and acidity. Mineral notes return as its just-ripe crunchiness tapers. Lean and focused – an excellent expression of the variety. Nick Butler The Real Review
