Kilikanoon Skilly Valley Pinot Gris 2022

Share

Can we see more Clare Valley Pinot Gris, please! The region’s higher, cooler sites are perfect for the Alsatian style white. Look no further than this elegant gris for proof. Discreet, tantalising bouquet of spiced apple, pear and citrus with lifted floral aromatics. Citrus lurks on the palate, a base on which to build real depth of concentrated flavour. It’s there in early building phase at the moment with texture too. Everything is in its place. This is a gris of some class and another reason to check out some of the new releases from the outstanding 2022 vintage across most regions of South Australia.
