Helen’s Hill Candlebark Pinot Gris

Helen’s Hill Candlebark Pinot Gris 2026, crafted by the Helen’s Hill winemaking team in Victoria’s Yarra Valley, offers the appeal of a fragrant, textural cool-climate white. Candlebark’s established style balances generous pear fruit with citrus freshness and a lingering finish, making it an inviting choice for food-loving Pinot Gris drinkers.

Ripe pear and citrus define the broader profile, with floral nuances and gentle lees-derived richness adding interest. Published releases show a medium-weight, layered palate, balancing texture with freshness. Detailed 2026 tasting notes remain unconfirmed, so these descriptors reflect the established style of Helen’s Hill Candlebark Pinot Gris rather than a vintage-specific assessment.

Serve with roast chicken, grilled prawns or creamy mushroom pasta. A pear, rocket and parmesan salad makes another tempting match, echoing the fruit while adding savoury contrast. Pour chilled for a leisurely lunch or generous dinner when you want an Australian white with flavour, texture and versatility.
