Cable Bay Reserve Pinot Gris

Aromas emanate of Blood Orange and freshly picked Braeburn Apple, this is backed by Kaffir Lime leaves and wet limestone as the bouquet fully reveals itself.  There is a richness to this wine which is cut through with the crisp acidity on palate. It is medium bodied and the 6 months aging on fermentation lees in the concrete egg is perceived through a complex structure which complements the other elements on the palate. A wine that would be great to drink by itself, or be matched to a variety of dishes.
