Winery notes (2025 Vintage)
"Pale straw yellow. Enticing aromas of ripe pear and peach are layered with delicate floral and citrus notes and a hint of caramelised, nutty spice. The palate is silky smooth and weighty, showcasing succulent layers of stone fruit and citrus. Hints of caramelised macadamia and spice add depth, creating a mouth-filling mid palate, and a long, elegant finish."

5 Stars & 94/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, September 2025 (2025 Vintage)
"Pristine and elegantly fragrant with aromas of apricot, rockmelon, Asian pear, and white flowers. It's brightly expressed on the palate, offering juicy fruit intensity with silky texture and finely infused acidity, making it harmonious and fabulously drinkable. At its best: now to 2029."

4 Stars Yvonne Lorkin, October 2025 (2025 Vintage)
"From a banger of a vintage, Jules Taylor turns out an absolutely sippable style of Gris. Stacked with quince, baked pear, zesty acidity, white pepper, nutmeg, apple strudel, and boatloads of freshness and friskiness – it’s a wine with punch and personality and excellent length of flavour."

92/100 Cameron Douglas MS, October 2025 (2025 Vintage)
"A very attractive bouquet and palate with a plush, ripe and fruity package. Aromas of sweet brown pears and quince then yellow apple and a peppercorn spice lift. This also gives rise to scents of white flowers and a wet chalky mineral idea. Satin textures with a decent acid line frames the core white fleshed fruit flavours with a whisp of citrus on the finish. Delicious and ready with best drinking from 2025 through 2028."
