Sam Kim - Wine Orbit
Charming and delicately lifted with green pear, nectarine, lemon pith and jasmine nuances, it's finely expressed in the mouth offering bright fruit flavours with crisp acidity, leading to a lengthy mouth-watering finish.

Jeni Port - Halliday Wine Companion
Now in its tenth year, WA-based Risky Business has proven to be a keen King Valley supporter. Here, it sources pinot gris, one of the Valley's strong suits, bringing a mix of textural weight, warm spiciness and apple freshness to the glass. Solid gris aromas of honeysuckle, apple and pear, morph into a warm and inviting palate that runs long, aided by tangy acidity. A versatile wine at the table.
Ned Goodwin - JamesSuckling.com
A perfectly versatile dry white. Subdued notes of fennel, nashi pear and baking apple, pulled to modest length by soft acidity and a hint of textural chew. An unoaked, easygoing, mid-weighted wine that will please most.
