Mid straw in colour, the nose has a fresh apple and greengage aroma with a hint of crystallised pineapple. The palate has melon and nectarine fruit with some grape skin firmness and tangy acidity.
A well balanced, medium bodied, dry white wine.
This wine may have a harmless crystal deposit..stand upright for approx half an hour before pouring & pour the last glass with care.

WOW!! This is AMAZING! Such a structured, delightful wine. Easily drinkable by itself, but very much for us a food wine, We enjoyed this with smoked salmon pate, the combination was sublime. Such a vibrant but balanced wine given its age. Our only dilemma is how to keep it for a few years to explore how it will unfold without the temptation to drink it!

Pinot Blanc, tried one?
Grey Sands Vineyard, Tasmanian, Pinot Blanc 2018. Really very nice this. Grey Sands are a class act.
Nose – Beautifully perfumed, white stonefruit meets pineapple and green pear, crisp yet round with a really subtle spice undertone. Very nice.
Palate – Medium bodied, lovely texture, silky, generous fruit, white peach, green pear, dried pineapple, crisp acidity, green apple vibes, great length, some spice, almost finishing minerally and slightly saline.
There’s a lot to like about this wine, the quality is clear, so if you fancy an Aussie Pinot Blanc some day, this would be my recommendation.
