Wooing Tree Pinot Gris 2024

Crafted from handpicked fruit, 30% of the juice was barrel fermented in older French oak barrels, while the balance was fermented in stainless steel tanks. This approach imparts complexity and texture to the wine. The wine is vegan and vegetarian friendly.

Bouquet
The nose is expressive, offering aromas of ripe pear, stone fruit, and citrus, complemented by hints of nectarine, pineapple, fresh ginger, and spice.

Palate
On the palate, the wine is off-dry with a juicy and decadent profile. Flavours of ripe pear, brioche, honeysuckle, white peach, spice, and a hint of salted caramel are present. The wine has a pleasant honey finish.

Food Pairing
This Pinot Gris pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes. Consider enjoying it with spiced Asian cuisine, succulent pork belly dishes, or creamy pasta. Its versatility also makes it a great match for ripe, creamy cheeses.

Cellaring
While approachable upon release, this wine has the potential to develop further complexity with short-term cellaring. It is recommended to consume within 3 to 5 years to experience its optimal freshness.
