Kilikanoon Skilly Valley Pinot Gris

Kilikanoon Skilly Valley Pinot Gris 2025 from the cooler Woodvale vineyard in Clare Valley’s Skilly Valley is a softly textural, lightly blushed Gris with a watercolour feel – bright, gently aromatic and seriously moreish. Kilikanoon Skilly Valley Pinot Gris 2025 captures cool‑climate freshness with a touch of plushness.

Pour a glass and you’ll see pale straw with subtle gold‑pink Gris tints, then aromas of pear, quince, baked apple, kiwi fruit, acacia florals and exotic baking spices. The palate is light‑bodied yet expressive, delivering preserved pear, spiced apple and citrus folded into a creamy, “soft and squishy” texture, balanced by lingering acidity and a whisper of retained sweetness for extra charm.

This is tailor‑made for spicy Thai salads, sushi, grilled prawns, roast pork with apple, soft cheeses and weekend grazing boards, where its pear‑and‑spice profile and gentle sweetness can play beautifully with salt and chilli. Kilikanoon Skilly Valley Pinot Gris 2025 is the kind of Clare white you can happily pour as an aperitif or keep on the table right through lighter mains.
