Since building their own winery in 2013, the wines of Mount Brown have been going from strength to strength with much show success and great reviews across a number of varieties and, it would seem, an ever growing following out there in the marketplace. The 2023 Pinot Gris is just off-dry in style with plenty of fruit packed into it. Subtle honey notes and cleansing acidity give it great persistence. Delicious drinking and really sharply priced!
Winery notes (2023 Vintage)
"This delicious wine has upfront fruit with lovely pear and peach flavours. Some subtle quince and spice notes add to the complexity. Some residual sugar (7g) results in a medium-full palate with great texture."
5 Stars & 93/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, October 2023 (2023 Vintage)
"This is instantly appealing on the nose with poached pear, subtle spice, rockmelon and rich floral aromas, leading to a flavoursome palate that's generously textured and lingering. Beautifully composed and expressed. At its best: now to 2026."
92/100 Cameron Douglas MS, October 2023 (2023 Vintage)
"There’s no mistaking the vibrant youthful scents of fresh pears and apple, some quince and honeysuckle. A youthful fleshy bouquet with a touch of white spice. Fleshy, crisp, fruity and just dry as the wine touches the palate, flavours of white fleshed fruits including nectarine, spice and a touch of ripe citrus peel. Balanced and well made with a satin smooth texture offering excellent drinking from day of purchase through end of summer 2025."
