TOP RANK | Bob Campbell MW, The Real Review
Starborough must now be considered one of our finest pinot gris producers and this is a sublime, off-dry expression that delivers a textbook example of this enticing varietal. Every year this release seems to get better and better and the 2023 is in banging form with layer after layer of tangy pear and ripe stone fruit flavours. Very highly recommended.

The winery writes "An elegant wine with a finely concentrated palate displaying aromatic white and yellow stonefruits lifted by exotic florals, rose-petal elements and complex nutty and flinty nuances. The wine shows excellent fruit intensity and silky texture, leading to a lingering smooth finish".
Sam Kim, Wine Orbit writes "Beautifully ripe and elegantly fragrant, showing Asian pear, rockmelon, lemon peel and floral aromas, leading to a succulent palate delivering excellent weight and rounded mouthfeel. Splendidly framed by silky texture and juicy acidity, making it highly enjoyable."

Great drop
Lovely off dry Pinot Gris. Better than the previous vintage in my opinion.
