Tim Adams Clare Valley Pinot Gris 2016

January 4, 2017

Tim Adams Clare Valley Pinot Gris 2016

Please Aussie wine world, send us more textural Pinot Gris and less flavourless Pinot Grigio. It’s the right thing to do.

This Clare Gris is more like it. Just off-dry, with pressings returned to the blend for extra texture, there’s even a little hint of blush. The pressings clearly give an extra bit of grip, which offsets the sweetness nicely, before a palate that is ultimately lean and tight.

Solid, fresh and dry white wine with a little extra palate weight to take a simple wine further. Best drinking: 2017-2022. 17.5/20, 91/100. 12.5%, $22. Would I buy it? I’d drink a few glasses no probs.

(I use inklpay in lieu of a paywall. A small tip goes a long way to finally paying for hosting!)

  • About me – Andrew Graham


    At 18 I started working in a small suburban bottleshop, largely to buy cheap beer. It was my first year of university, doing a degree that I didn't really like, and a liquor shop seemed like fun. Needless to say I discovered wine, my uni degree morphed into something completely different and wine/beer took over my life.

    Almost twenty years later and I currently spend my days wearing many (wine) hats, mostly as a writer, presenter and marketer.

    While wearing my writer cap I write features for the likes of National Liquor News, Gourmet Traveller WINE and the RAS plus I'm a Lifestyle FOOD channel wine expert. Read more about me here or get in touch to book your next wine event with me here.
