A juicy, minerally white, loaded with slate and petrol notes on the nose that underscore the silky mix of melon, guava, grated ginger and candied orange peel on the palate.

Forget all about the idea that pinot gris is a simple wine for everyday drinking. This is an amazingly expressive dry wine for 12.5% alcohol with great chalky minerality. Breathtaking vitality for this grape at the salty and energetic finish.

Here’s a stunning wine for lovers of rich Alsace pinot gris, the very lively acidity enabling it to carry a hint of sweetness without any trouble at all. Serious, chalky structure behind all the flesh and wonderfully bright citrus character at the powerful finish. From biodynamically grown grapes.

This well-cut version is floral on the nose and lively on the palate, with a hint of crushed almond underscoring the poached apricot, persimmon and pickled ginger flavors. Ends with a lightly chalky finish.

Plenty of apple-ring and dried-pear character, plus a whiff of honeycomb on the nose. But this wine isn’t so much about aroma as the creamy texture and delicate, chalky minerality that counterpoints it. Quite low in acidity, but still fresh and enticing. From biodynamically grown grapes.
