Harewood Flux II Pinot Gris 2020

From Harewood’s experimental Flux range, this is one of the better bottles of pinot gris I’ve encountered for quite some time. From the Great Southern, it is pale green/gold. Fresh, but there is some emerging complexity. A slight lemon soap note on the nose (this is meant in a most positive way) with spices and hints of pear. Young and with a touch of minerality underneath there is a nice flick of acidity and a lovely rounded texture. Excellent length, this is a wine that should continue to drink beautifully for the next four years at least. A really good pinot gris. In fact, if all pinot gris was this good, it would enjoy a far more serious reputation.
