This is Pinot Gris made with the intention of highlighting the textural elements of this lovely variety.

Yoshi Sato makes this naturally with plenty of skin contact, some time in barrel and a good time on lees to round out the body of the wine and give you a little more flesh to hang onto.

If you want boring, insipid Pinot Gris – something that’s just your classic BBQ smasher, you’ll need to look elsewhere.

This is a premium example of Pinot Gris for those who want to explore the full range of the variety.
