Harvested at full ripeness for texture, and palate-weight reflective of the French Pinot Gris style, our 2021 release brings with it lifted and intense citrus and Nashi pear fruits, elderflower notes and a musk-like savouriness.
A clean and palate-cleansing flinty acidity finishes a wine that we consider best enjoyed in the exultation of youth.
Embrace that youthful joy with a Thai green chicken curry or a spring vegetable minestrone soup.
Don't take our word for it ..
"A change in winemaking style from the 2020 with less skin contact time resulting in on the faintest of blush in colour. Fragrant Nashi pear, apple leaf, lychee and blonde balsa wood. Textural and weighty with sharp, keen acidity balancing the flesh. Finishing mouthwatering and dry."

"Tahbilk's place in the history of Australian wine is well attested to, and while deservedly famous for its Marsanne the winery has made a Gris [2021] worthy of attention: straw gold in appearance,with a slightly funky nose with restrained notes of citrus and kitchen spice. Quite juxtaposed on the palate, it's rich and textural yet with quite restrained fruit flavours, making for an interesting food wine."
