Fermented on the skins for 12 days, this distinctive Pinot Gris was originally dry and richly textured, with soft tannins and a long finish. Notes of apricot compote, salted butterscotch, grapefruit and lightly steeped black tea were accompanied by a sherry-like oxidative character.
After six years of bottle age, its fruit notes may have mellowed, allowing more complex, nutty and savoury characteristics to emerge. Its tannins may also have softened and become more integrated, adding further depth to this already richly textured wine.
