Winery notes (2025 Vintage)
"Bright florals with apple and pear notes underscored with a fresh herbal seam with compliments of spice. The wine is just off-dry with ripe fruit flavours, rich texture and fresh acidity. Drinking well now; this wine can be enjoyed until late 2028. Great with white meat, veal, Asian food, and cheeses.
We harvested the fruit during the night in cool temperatures so that the natural flavours and aromatics were preserved. The grapes were gently pressed, and the juice settled prior to fermentation. The wine was fermented in stainless steel tanks at cool temperatures to retain the bright, varietal aromatics and a small portion in old French oak for added weight and texture."
91/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, July 2024 (2025 Vintage)
"Delightfully fruited and elegantly expressed, the inviting bouquet shows Asian pear, rockmelon, Gala apple, and white floral aromas. The palate delivers juicy fruit intensity with silky texture and delicate acidity, making it immediately appealing. At its best: now to 2028."

Erin Larkin, RobertParker.com, December 2024 (2024 Vintage)
"The 2024 Pinot Gris is simple, packed with pear and lemon flavour and a little sweetness through the finish. This is great summer drinking here—don't think too hard about it. It's neat, and everything is in its place."
