This year’s Cloudwalker sees a return to a more typical vintage, one in which we employ all the varieties grown in this single vineyard.
Dominant in Pinot Gris we get colour spice and stonefruit dimensions, modest levels of Riesling engage further spice and citrus lift.
Beyond this a subtle gift of Pinot rose smooths the complexion ever so slightly.
This also means the wine is quite tightly boned in Autumn 2023 and will become more generous with several years of cellaring.
Either enjoy young for its vitality and attitude or invest in some time and look forward to a more relaxed supple version in the
next 2-10 years.
