Grey Sands Vineyards Pinot Gris 2019 from the Tamar Valley is a fuller‑bodied, character‑packed Tasmanian gris, sitting mid‑straw in the glass and showing off the hands‑on, low‑yield style the estate is known for. Grey Sands Pinot Gris 2019 feels generous and savoury rather than simple, with a real emphasis on texture and length.

Aromatically, it offers ripe nectarine and quince tart with mascarpone, giving a mix of stone fruit richness and pastry‑like complexity. The palate is rich and textural with balanced sweet fruit and acidity, so you get mouth‑filling flavour without it ever feeling cloying. The finish is long, dry and aromatic, and the wine may develop a harmless deposit over time – a sign of minimal handling rather than any fault.

This Tamar Valley Pinot Gris is spot on with roast pork, creamy chicken dishes, richer seafood or soft‑rind cheeses, and it’s great for cooler evenings when you want a white with real weight and interest.
