Quartz Reef Pinot Gris 2024

93 POINTS

Dave Brookes - Halliday Wine Companion

Light straw in the glass with aromas of pear, lemon and nectarine with hints of crushed stone, crème fraîche, almond meal, fresh and pressed wildflowers, soft spice and a distant suggestion of lanolin and lavender. Dry, with expressive pear and nectarine fruits and a touch of lemon zest and cream. This has a precise line with a lovely stony, savoury sense of travel.

James Suckling

Seductive, textured and delicate, showing fresh apples, pear skin and mild spices on the nose. Medium-bodied with medium acidity. Mellow with an enticing orchard-fruit finish. From organically grown grapes.

Rebecca Gibb MW - Vinous

The 2024 Pinot Gris is supple and textural with a mellow, easygoing nature. While the variety is aromatically subdued by nature, the winemaker has built texture through lees and phenolics, which lend a round, succulent and lightly phenolic grip. The finish is dry and savoury, with chew and structure. This is best enjoyed in its first two to five years, ideally with a dish that features cream, bacon and potato.
