BK ‘Ego is the Enemy’ Pinot Gris

This Pinot Gris is a breath of fresh air, crisp, bright, and effortlessly stylish. Made by Brendon and Kirstyn Keys, it’s all about minimal intervention and capturing pure expression in the vineyard. You’ll get juicy pear and white peach notes, a zippy citrus hit, and a clean, refreshing finish. Pop a bottle, take a sip, and let it humble you in the best way.

Location: Adelaide Hills, South Australia, Australia
Winemaking / Farming Techniques: Made from 100% Pinot Gris grapes sourced from Scary Gully Vineyard. Whole-bunch pressed directly into concrete egg fermenters, where it ferments and matures for nine months on full solids. No oak influence, minimal intervention; bottled with minimal sulphur.
Style/Body: Medium-bodied, lush, and texturally rich but balanced, with a clean and vivid profile.
Notes: A complex and generous wine showcasing fruit purity and intricate texture. Intense aromas of pear drop and lemon zest lead to a waxy, honeycomb palate, finishing with cinnamon-stick spice and a saline grip. Flavours are rich yet fresh, with crystal-clear clarity and layered nuance.
