Description
Ricky Evans has a way of making even the most familiar varieties feel exciting, and this Pinot Gris is a perfect example. It’s built with balance in mind - textural, fresh, and food-friendly, without losing the bright fruit and crisp acidity that makes Gris so drinkable.
The fruit comes from Rowella and Rosevears in the western Tamar Valley, two sites that bring a mix of energy and depth. Ricky picks in two stages - the first batch comes in early, gets a quick skin soak, then heads to seasoned barrels for fermentation and lees ageing, building texture and weight. The later pick stays in stainless steel, capturing all the bright pear and citrus vibrancy that Pinot Gris does so well.
It’s an easygoing but thoughtful expression - honeysuckle, nashi pear and a hint of citrus zest, with a silky, leesy mouthfeel and just enough crunch to keep you coming back. Perfectly pitched for laid-back dinners, long afternoons, and anywhere good company is involved.
