Black Estate Skypunch Pinot Gris 2023

93 POINTS: Cameron Douglas MS

"Fragrant and aromatic bouquet with scents of fresh yellow apple and pear flesh, there’s a touch of cider and pilsner adding depth and a natural mineral quality. Fresh, plush and juicy on the palate with flavours that mirror the bouquet, medium+ acid line and balanced, chalky finish. Well made, ideal as an aperitif or with fresh seafood or pasta."
- Cameron Douglas MS

Aromas of preserved lemon citrus, flint, almond, cardamon, and ginger. The palette is structured and vibrant with unique saline tension. Flavours of new season pear and apricot, white peach and vanilla bean.

ABV: 12%

A new surprise

We've always been fans of Languedoc reds, and having tried this for the first time we are much taken with this example of southern whites. Beautiful balance of acidity and freshness. This will be on our repeat shopping list like Villa Blanche.

An old favourite

Although this is a new vintage for us, it never fails to delight. Full of lovely crisp Grenache flavour. We bought it for summer and starting drinking it in mid-winter!!

Excellent value

Clear cab sav and merlot on the nose, clean not complex. Soft tannins and good fruit moderately sustained.. Clean finish. Good oak handling. Certainly not a platinum whatever that is but good silver and excellent value for the money

A great bridge between commercial and premium, plus it's a good conversation starter! 5 stars at the current discounted price.

Great Value

At its price, one of the best reds I have tasted. The experience is consistent with the bottle notes, fruity, balanced with a hint of oak and a long finish.
