Jessop Amphora Pinot Gris 2024

$29
Fermented in amphora for 10 months on full lees. A rose gold hue in the glass. Opening with magnolia blooms, blush nectarine and Bosc pear skin. Grated galangal and parsnip, too. The friendly side of gris is highlighted here with a sultry, almost slurpy, palate weight. RS is just perceivable and interwoven into the texture of the wine. It finishes with some tangelo oil and Angostura bitters. A clever little wine that could make many a cuisine look good. 91 points, drink 2024-2026, Shanteh Wale, Halliday Wine Companion.
