Cook’s Lot Pinot Gris Allotment 666 2025

Another wine from this portfolio which impressed the show judges. Pinot Gris from Orange, the colour here is that of a pale orange/pink rose. The nose gives us notes of spices, certainly pears and florals, a touch of stewed apples and a flick of ginger, and, possibly thanks to the power of suggestion due to that colour, a hint of strawberries. Quite a delicious style, there is focus, balance and decent length. The wine can be enjoyed over the next two to four years. Excellent stuff.
