TERRA DEL CAPO PINOT GRIGIO 2025

Tempting traces of caramel and sweet floral aromas can be found with the more prominent spice, cherry and overt blueberry fruit notes. The trademark cherry flavour and succulence is obvious on the palate entry. Lively, bright and engaging it offers more besides: dark fruitcake and ample spice – cinnamon and nutmeg – alongside an understated oaky nuance. The grape’s signature tannins have been held in check and provide a gentle squeeze and light dryness without overwhelming the structure and body, with is nicely lithe and pliable. A deliciously persistent finish rounds off the tasty mouthful.

Pale salmon hue, with generous bouquet of lime cordial, oyster shell, fresh sea breeze and apple. Tang of crunchy, crisp green apple and raspberry, vivacious and bright, are immediately apparent on the palate. Lively fizz and energy of the mousse lends additional appeal. Lime marmalade and citrus zest appear before a fantail of toasty brioche, sourdough and creamy lees unfurls. Poised, focused, dry and cohesive to the end.

Citrus and stonefruit with honeydew melon aromas. Gently ripe and rounded, the palate is broad and appealing with its melon, lemon and grapefruit zest countered by the vivd stone fruit flavours. Nimble and vivacious with crisp, tangy acid to balance the fruit vibrancy. Light-bodied and fun, it’s easy to enjoy but not without a serious side, as evidenced by the lees note and subtle flinty, almost mineral, tail.

Softly attractive strawberry and raspberry aromas with a subtle floral fringe that complements its pale pink shade. The palate is fresh and juicy with a gentle citrus tang perfectly offset and balanced by the rounded berry compote flavours. There’s even an exotic suggestion of Turkish Delight. Appealing in its succulence and vibrancy, it has good body and presence. It’s no will o’ the wisp: it has substance and good length.
