2023 Domestique Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer
Smells like fresh apples and nashi pear overlaid with lychee and hints of tropical fruit courtesy of the 30% Gewurztraminer which… in our opinion, makes the Gris shine even brighter. A mid to light weight wine, with plenty of texture and natural acidity. Delicious anytime drinking but best served with friends and family!

Wonderful Pinot Gris from this part of the world, high up the hill. Elevated at around 875m, these grapes are exceptional and surprised us in the winery. From a challenging vintage, this Gris certainly shone and delivered purity and style in spades.
So the Gris forms 70% of our blend, while Gewurztraminer from another quality grower makes up the remaining portion. Both parcels were treated separately in the winery, but the fruit was all pressed and run partially to barrel - and in part, pressed to tank to settle, before racking off solids to barrel for fermentation.
Stylistically we wanted this wine to be fine, fragrant, clear in the glass and focused on the palate. A wine that won’t challenge too much but one that will show its layers should you decide to look?!
