Twin Valleys Reserve Pinot Gris 2023

This forms an interesting contrast with the Pinot Grigio. For me, neither is better – they are simply different and it is most definitely worth exploring those differences. Another from the single site series, this time from the Alpine Valleys, the colour is pale straw. As opposed to the exuberant wonder of the Grigio, this is more refined and classic. Take your pick as to your preference. Notes of pears are to the fore here – crisp, fresh pears, but also notes of spicy stewed pears, along with ginger, lemons and floral touches. Tight and focused, this has balance and length, and a good line of acidity runs the course. This can be enjoyed any time over the next five to six years.
