Cox Family Wines Tumbarumba Pinot Gris 2025
$40, 12.5% alcohol, screwcap, Tumbarumba.
This is a gris in the true sense of the style, in that it’s rich with fruit and generous at every turn. This is a wine to please a crowd. Ripe pear and apple flavours come served with musk, pink marshmallow and strawberry-like flavours. There’s an air of fruit sweetness throughout, though it finishes dry. 90 points.
