2021 Airlie Bank Gris Fermented On Skins
Airlie Bank
The 2021 Airlie Bank Gris on Skins has its distinctive Redskin (now quite rightly renamed Red Ripperz!) nose, with Meyer lemon and dash of Old Spice. The palate is more restrained than in previous years, musky and floral with a bitter aperol finish. Winemaking was more towards whole bunches this year, and even the skins component had a longer maceration (4 days). Despite all this the wine is refreshing and balanced, restrained even. – Tim Shand

90 points.
Such good value wines these Airlie Bank wines. Gris here fermented on skins to make a pretty wine, with depth.
Cherry, smoky spice notes, brambles and nashi pear. Supple to taste, pear and strawberry notes, a touch of gummy tannins and a general sense of prettiness and simplicity. A great L Plate skin fermented wine, you could say, or a slightly more complex, textural rose. Anyways, good drink and great price.
