100% Pinot Gris grown by David and Annette Innes at Littlehampton in the Adelaide Hills. Burnished straw in colour. A sweet, floral, exotic fragrance of honeysuckle, nectarine and stone-fruits with a hint of marzipan and nashi pear. The intensely fruited palate is juicy and lush with complex flavours of caraway, musk and truffles around a tight mineral core, an excellent texture and long zesty finish.
