The 2025 Bellvale Pinot Gris is a vibrant cool-climate Gippsland white wine that highlights texture, freshness and site expression from the Tarwin River Valley in South Gippsland. Produced from estate-grown fruit, the wine opens with lifted aromas of ripe pear, white peach and orchard fruit alongside delicate florals, gentle spice and subtle mineral notes.
On the palate, it is supple and finely textured, with bright acidity balancing flavours of stone fruit, citrus and ripe apple through a long, smooth finish. Wild fermentation and extended lees contact in older French oak add depth and complexity without overshadowing the wine’s freshness and cool-climate character. The 2025 vintage shows both generosity and precision, delivering a balanced and expressive Pinot Gris.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Pinot Gris for customers seeking a more textural cool-climate style with freshness and versatility. Drinking beautifully young while retaining the balance to develop further over the next 3–5 years. Ideal with grilled seafood, roast chicken, creamy pasta dishes or soft cheeses.
