Rob Dolan ‘White Label’ Pinot Gris 2025 from the Yarra Valley slides on as a textural little number, blending juicy fruit with a gentle blush‑tinted look that makes it easy to love on a warm Australian afternoon.

Expect aromas of nashi pear, red apple and a whiff of musk or honeysuckle, then a palate that’s soft and gently oily with flavours of ripe pear, melon, red apple skin and a faint watermelon‑like freshness across the finish. The wine keeps its acid line tight enough to stay refreshing but wraps it in a rounded, lightly tannic texture from its short skin contact, giving more grip than your average Pinot Grigio.

Rob Dolan White Label Pinot Gris 2025 works especially well with Asian‑influenced dishes: think Vietnamese pork rolls, salt‑and‑pepper squid, lemongrass chicken or a fennel and pear salad – its texture and subtle spice keep up with bold flavours while its bright fruit makes it effortlessly drinkable.
