2017 Sidewood Estate Pinot Gris

Sourced from the Oakbank Vineyard, the wine was whole bunch pressed before partial barrel fermentation in old French Oak.

There is a lot to like about this wine, the nose is delicate, floral and steeped in pear and jasmine; yet the palate has an undeniably chalky and savoury edge with background lees notes giving a suggestion of richness before a drying, textural finish.

This is not your everyday Pinot Gris, it's complex yet considered and will enjoy a few years in the cellar.
