Description

"

The bouquet is delicately perfumed showing pineapple, pear and white peach characters. It’s beautifully ripe and elegantly textured on the palate with lovely weight and a lingering crisp finish. The wine shows lovely fruit expression and gentle complexity, making it a most satisfying wine to drink!"

--------THE GRAPE--------

Pinot Gris

Grown throughout New Zealand, our Pinot Gris is fresh and full-flavoured, with notes of apple, pear, honeysuckle, spice and bread.

It is more akin to Alsace in style than the drier Pinot Grigio. 

Grown throughout the country, the warmer North Island climate tends to create ripe, fat, oily styles whilst the cooler South Island produces tighter wines with great structure.

Barrel ageing, fermenting with native, wild yeasts, and lees stirring are common winemaking practices in New Zealand to build texture, mouthfeel and complexity.

Breaking on to the New Zealand scene in the early 1990s, Pinot Gris has enjoyed a dramatic rise to fame and is now our third most popular white variety.
