Description

"It is delightfully lifted on the nose showing fresh pear, nectarine, orange peel and floral characters, followed by a beautifully rounded palate that is supple and fleshy. The wine offers youthful fruit intensity together with elegant weight and smooth mouthfeel, finishing long and refreshing. At its best: now to 2020" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2019

An elegant nose with notes of baked apple, warm brioche and appealing cinnamon.  Fresh flavours of pear,  crisp Braeburn apple and a touch of sweat apricot. Mouthfilling and smooth with lively acids and a refreshing, lengthy back palate.

The fruit for this Pinot Gris comes from a selection of vineyards in the Wairau and Awatere valleys. All vineyards where the fruit was sourced exhibit moderate fertility and the grapes were carefully monitored during maturity to ensure they were harvested at the peak of flavour development and ripeness.

Food Pairing: Enjoy on its own or with a tasty cheese platter.
