Reviews and Ratings

Craig Haynes - WSET3 FWS SWS IWS rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

From mature vines located in the 13 hectare Malivoire Estate Vineyard, this pinot gris is fresh and crisp. A food friendly wine from Ontario's Beamsville Bench VQA sub-appellation, expect to find enticing notes of white flowers, peaches and grapefruit complemented by hints of honey and crushed river stones.
Pamela Chiles rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Nice sipping-style Pinot Gris. Pale pink in colour, soft and fresh mouthfeel, stone fruit, citrus notes, good acidity with a bit of residual sugar. Tasted April 2019
Craig Kuziemsky rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Peach notes on the nose and palate with acidic citrus and some spice on the palate. Pair with roasted chicken or cream based pasta. Tasted April 2019 at Taste Ontario.
