Vintage: 2023
Alc %: 12.0
$ Rel: 28
A punchy, ripe pinot gris whose musky bouquet reveals intense aromas of lychee, pear, apple skin and white flowers. Initially juicy and generous, it becomes more shapely down the palate, moving with crunch and texture towards a mouthwateringly brisk and zesty finish.

Winery
Pike and Joyce
This joint venture between Pikes Wines (Clare Valley) and Joyson Orchards (Lenswood) in the Adelaide Hills is responsible for a typically well made and varietally correct collection of elegant cool climate wines. The usually shapely and mineral Chardonnay is usually the flag bearer amongst a fine, pristine collection of white wines, each of which delivers beautiful varietal purity. In particular, the Sauvignon Blanc is a spotless of frequently mineral wine - poles apart from what most Marlborough expressions deliver. The reds are steadily improving, led by some very delicious pinots with pleasing textural and savoury qualities.
