Description

  • Dry style
  • Blossom & rose petal
  • Exotic spice
  • Creamy & rounded

A rich, soft and aromatic Pinot Gris. Pale lemon with a pinkish hue. Beautifully expressive, showing white floral notes of blossom and rose petal, with exotic spice hints offset by ripe, red apple and pear. A dry style of Pinot Gris with just a kiss of fruit sweetness, this wine is simply seamless. Elegant and pretty, the orchard fruit is gently succulent with a delicately full finish, becoming slightly creamy and rounded as the wine warms. Harmonious and balanced even in its youth, this is a testament to another excellent season in Martinborough.

72% of the fruit from the Pencarrow Vineyard, 16% from the winemakers organic vineyard Om Santi and the balance from the Clouston Vineyard. The fruit is harvested and has 3 hours skin contact to aid in extraction of aromas and flavour. The grapes are gently pressed, tank fermented to 5.8g/litre of residual sugar adding weight and texture. The wine is aged for a further 3 months on lees gaining complexity before bottling.

Food Pairing: Enjoy with roast pork with crackling or any other Asian fusion style dishes with bold sauces and spices. Best enjoyed in the flush of youth, between now and 2025.
