La Boheme Pinot Gris 2021
Australia, Yarra Valley
Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, Riesling, Traminer
Description
Dame Nellie Melba, the operatic legend from the Yarra Valley, inspired the La Bohème range. Named after one her most famous operas, these are classic bistro wines - ethereal, aromatic, textural, sophisticated and easy to pair with food. This is a gently fragrant and classicly perfumed Pinot Gris with characters of pear, orange blossom and stone fruit. The palate is textural with flavours of apple and mandarin. This is a classic 'Gris' style with soft acidity and round finish.
