Riposte The Stiletto Pinot Gris 2024

Riposte is the family brand of Tim Knappstein and Son, based for many years in the Adelaide Hills after his formative years in Clare. This new vintage Pinot Gris is a noticeably pretty expression, the aromatics redolent with musk and Spring season florals, with a sweet apple set of tastes to follow, the palate richly textured which enhances the flavour profile and offers a light spice note to lift the finish. An attractive style.
