Description
- Dry style
- Ripe pear & stone fruit
- Blossom notes
- Citrus
A pale straw colour with light gold hues in the glass, this wine presents ripe pear and tropical fruits on the nose with lifted notes of blossom and spice. It is a medium-bodied Pinot Gris with great texture and a fruit filled style showing ripe pear and stone fruit on the palate. The richness of the wine is balanced with citrusy acid that makes the wine fresh and very pleasant to drink.
The growing season started cooler than average but was followed by a very warm and dry January. February cooled bringing perfect ripening conditions followed by a dry March allowing fruit to be harvested in optimum condition.
Grapes sourced from a portion of the vineyard known to produce fruit with exceptional ripeness and flavour were gently pressed. Only the free run juice and lightly pressed portions were used. The must was inoculated with specific yeast strains and fermented at low temperatures to retain elegant aromatic varietal character. Fermentation was halted to create a fruit-driven textural wine.
Stables Reserve offers a sense of history with its name taken from the original Stables where it all started in the heart of the Hawke’s Bay. Gentle in style, the Stables range evokes life’s simple pleasures – warmth, hospitality and conversation.
Food Pairing: Enjoy with chicken, turkey, vegetable terrines or dishes with nutty flavoured sauces.
