2019 Shadowfax Little Hampton Pinot Gris
Shadowfax
Fifth release from Shadowfax's pride and joy, Little Hampton Vineyard. At 700m above sea level, it's one of coolest vineyards in Macedon. Hand harvested fruit was firmly whole bunch pressed followed by natural ferment in older French barrels. Lifted musk and floral notes accompany ripe apricot and pear. It has a rich, textural mouthfeel and glides silk-like across the palate. Even at this ripeness, there's no sense of heaviness. Nuttiness and intense orchard fruits aplenty, with a nice ginger zing at the end. - Ed Merrison, CellarHand

95 points
Hand-picked, whole-bunch pressed, wild-fermented in used French oak, matured for 9 months on lees. A very complex gris, both bouquet and palate unfolding citrus and almonds, multi-spices, moving into a world of honeysuckle, poached pear and fig in the mouth.
