This unusual blend mirrors the famous Alsatian ‘Gentil’ styles marrying the body of Pinot Gris with the spicy aromatics of Gewürztraminer and finishing with the finesse of Riesling. Pale yellow in colour, the nose is fragrant and perfumed showing some lychee and musk lolly spiciness with a hint of ginger and Turkish delight. The palate is glossy and textural, with positive phenolics, in conjunction with some acid tension, playing an important role in framing the richness of the mouthfeel.

Winemaking
• The Pinot Gris, Gewürztraminer and a portion of the Riesling were hand harvested on 24 March 2021 at 12.3 Bé, and the remaining Riesling a month later on 20 April 2021. • The fruit was destemmed and left in contact with skins for about eight hours prior to gentle pressing, and then fermented (by indigenous yeasts) in older white oak. •Fifteen percent of the Riesling component was fermented on skins before being pressed off a fortnight later to a stainless-steel tank. •Left on lees for close to three months with lees stirring fortnightly.
