Starborough wines have been making their mark over the past 4-5 years with their Sauvignon Blanc and also with their consistently 5 star rated Pinot Gris. Made in the drier style with richness from partial barrel ferment and extended lees contact. It has nice weight and succulence showing excellent fruit intensity and a silken texture.
Winery notes (2024 Vintage)
"An elegant wine with a finely concentrated palate displaying aromatic white and yellow stonefruits lifted by exotic florals, rose-petal elements and complex nutty and flinty nuances. The wine shows excellent fruit intensity and silky texture, leading to a lingering smooth finish."
5 Stars & 94/100 Candice Chow Wine Chat (2024 Vintage)
"Poised and dry with elegantly expressive aromatics and concentration; silky, fine-textured phenolic and floral details lift the presence along a lively acid line."
5 Stars & 93/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, October 2024 (2024 Vintage)
"Charming and inviting, the bouquet shows apricot, fig, Nashi pear and floral aromas, leading to a succulent palate offering supple texture and juicy acidity, finishing lingering and delectable. At its best: now to 2027."
4 Stars Cuisine Pinot Gris Tasting, February 2025 (2024 Vintage)
"An ever-so-slight pinky peachy blush in the glass with lovely high-toned aromas of pears and stonefruit through the nose. The palate has a lovely acid line with well-balanced sweetness and a long juicy finish."
90/100 Stephen Wong MW, The Real Review (2024 Vintage)
"An off-dry pinot gris with subtle sweet spice, ripe pear and mid-weight tropical mango flavours which flow across the smooth, light-bodied palate before turning slightly sweet on the long, flavoursome finish. Charming and delectable wine for enjoying right now."
