Gala Estate Pinot Gris 2023 from Tasmania’s Freycinet Coast is a cool–climate, French–inspired gris that’s crisp, fruitful and seriously easy to love, offering a vibrant White Label expression that drinks beautifully young. This Gala Estate White Label Pinot Gris 2023 typically shows nashi pear, orange citrus and pear skin with raw almond, spice and a fine line of minerality, all wrapped in bright, mouth–watering acidity.

On the palate you can expect a gently opulent, juicy core of ripe pear, green apple and citrus, balanced by natural Tasmanian acidity that brings crunch, tension and length. Lees work adds subtle creaminess and texture without losing that refreshing, clean finish, so the wine feels both generous and tightly framed – a genuine crowd–pleaser for Pinot Gris fans and newcomers alike.

Food–wise, it is spot–on with Tassie scallops, pan–fried fish, oysters, salt–and–pepper squid and fresh prawns, where the citrusy drive cuts through brine and batter beautifully. It also works brilliantly with chicken salads, soft cheeses, mildly spiced Asian dishes and creamy vegetarian pastas, making Gala Estate Pinot Gris 2023 an ideal house white for everything from simple weeknight dinners to long seafood lunches.
