Urlar Pinot Gris 2019
Urlar takes immense pride in being a family-owned enterprise. Their unwavering vision is to craft exceptional single-vineyard wines that authentically echo their unique origins. To uphold the utmost integrity to this mission, they've embraced a holistic approach, cultivating grapes and producing wine through a harmonious blend of organic and biodynamic principles. At the core of their philosophy lies "Urlar," a word inspired by Gaelic, signifying the very essence of the earth. It is the heart of our farming ethos, embodying their aspiration to rejuvenate these ancient soils, infusing them with renewed vitality. Their goal is simple yet profound: to present you with wines that capture the unadulterated purity of flavor that their land inherently offers.
Aromas of stonefruit and spice (nutmeg), ginger and honey with sweet pear dominate the nose. The wine has a honeyed and mouth filling entry from the malolactic influence. Satisfying richness is then reined in by a tangelo skin and ginger spiced texture from the skin contact parcel. It finishes dry and refreshing. Will cellar for several years, enjoy with rich food.
Pork and Chive Dumplings
Very savoury aromatics, oak spice honey, hay-rich creamy notes of malolactic fermentation.
Full mid-palate, creaming soda, nougat and spice. Full entry finishes dry with a lingering impression of ripe pears and honey and butter on toast.
