Mt Holdsworth Wairarapa Pinot Gris 2021
Description
- Dry style
- Pear & melon
- Exotic florals
- Smooth finish
This is a wonderfully exotic wine with aromas of flowers, pear and melon. The palate has nectarine and tropical fruit richness which is balanced with a smooth refreshing finish.
Fruit for this wine was selected from mature vineyards in the North Island that consistently produce outstanding Pinot Gris grapes. The 2021 vintage has delivered exceptional quality with low yields and a temperate dry growing season producing clean ripe fruit with great flavor intensity.
The focus in the winery is to capture the pure fruit flavours that come in from the vineyard. The grapes were harvested at optimum ripeness then gently pressed and the juice fermented at cool temperatures with selected yeasts to enhance aromatic potential. After ferment the wine rested on lees to enhance mouthfeel before blending and preparation for early bottling.
Food Pairing: Great on its own this Pinot Gris is incredibly versatile with a variety of food, our favourites being chilled furry peach and red curry mussels.

Don't know why I rate these wines I like as the price seems to go up soon afterwards. However I feel it's necessary as I have just purchased my fifth 6 bottle case. I prefer my whites cold and as a result am very pleased with this wine. Nice tastes of pear and good mouthfeel and after tastes. The price point is a great incentive. At this price you may wonder why other wineries cannot produce at a similar price. The only examples of this wine, which have tasted and are better, come from the Waipara Valley or Central Otago.

Ok for price, less flavour than Marlboro and Waipara sister PGs
