Wine Description
6Ft6 Pinot Gris is a real crowd pleaser, a lovely balanced white suitable for all occasions. Primary fruit characters of white peach and apples are followed with a hint of spice and honeysuckle, offering layers of depth and intrigue. The palate is juicy, round with a creamy textured finish. More honey and pear notes are followed with a slight hint of crisp natural acidity which keep the wine fresh and vivacious.
