Pinot Gris lovers, we’ve got an irresistible deal for you! This six-pack showcases two exceptional expressions of the varietal, both made with the incredible PGs of Alsace firmly in mind. These are vibrant, textural, and offer pure drinking pleasure. You'll get 3 bottles each of the Miss Zilm Pinot Gris 2023 which is beautifully balanced, offering lifted aromas of ripe pear, stone fruit, cinnamon and a hint of jasmine. The palate is silky and textured, with flavours of spiced apple, citrus zest, and a delicate minerality, finishing with refreshing acidity. The second half of this vinous tryst is the Colours of the South Pinot Gris 2024. This is lively and fruit-driven take on Pinot Gris, bursting with aromas of ripe pear, apple and spice. The palate is superbly textural, thanks to the fruit having been picked ripe and time spent being lees stirred on old French oak. It is an absolute joy to drink.
That’s $186 worth of premium Pinot Gris for just $120!

Superb small batch single vineyard PG from Keeda Zilm. Fruit is sourced entirely from Glen Kelly's vineyard in Sevenhill. Pears, spice, crisp green apple and an underlay of lime zest. Plenty of acid here to provide drive and a lovely mouthwatering aspect. The palate is just beginning to show the texture which develops so appealingly as PG ages.
A little riper than most PGs, this definitely a nod towards the style of Alsace. Gorgeous ripe pears and musk on the nose and palate which is already creamily textural. This mid-palate mouthfeel will continue to develop with time as the wine grows into itself. Only free run juice from whole bunch pressings were used and a small percentage of the wine spent time in old French oak. The result is a mixture of freshness and texture. This is a wonderful Pinot Gris

Pinot Gris is a white wine grape variety of the species Vitis vinifera.

The word "Pinot", which means "pinecone" in French, could have been given to it because the grapes grow in small pinecone-shaped clusters.
The wines produced from this grape also vary in colour from a deep golden yellow to copper and even a light shade of pink, and it is one of the more popular grapes for orange wine.
