Description

Turon White’s 'Hills Series' is all about capturing the pure vibrancy of the region at great prices, and this 2025 Pinot Gris is a textbook example. Turon leans into the more serious 'Gris' side of the spectrum here - think slippery textures and fleshy weight rather than simple, lean fruit. 

The winemaking is hands-on but thoughtful, involving wild ferments in both barrel and stainless steel, plus a few months on lees to build out the mid-palate. It’s a complete wine from the first pour, smelling of fragrant spice and florals. On the palate, it's all about that classic Pinot G pear character, wrapped in a creamy, mouth-filling texture. A tight, squeaky finish and a bit of chalky tension keeps everything refreshing and balanced.

Gris with real personality and seriously great value.

93 points "It does justice to the naming of 'pinot gris' with its Alsace bent of slippery texture, fleshy pear characters and adornment of sweet spices. A plush feel but controlled... Balanced, refreshing and spot on." - Mike Bennie (The Wine Front)

96 points "A complete wine from the outset... fuller flavours like Williams pear and fragrant spice notes swirling in and around each other, finishing off with a mouth-filling texture. Plenty of pleasure to be had." - Tony Love (Wine Pilot)

96 points - "Turon White’s Hills Series wines focus on freshness, purity and drinkability and he ticks the boxes on all three in this very attractive Pinot G. Winemaking details include whole bunch pressing, wild ferment in barrel and stainless steel, three months lees contact. A complete wine from the outset, where the fruits and florals become one aromatic exhibit, followed by a lovely creamy palate feel, fuller flavours like Williams pear and fragrant spice notes swirling in and around each other, finishing off with a mouth-filling texture and well-mannered richness. Plenty of pleasure to be had with this one." - Tony Love (Wine Pilot)
