Description

This Pinot Gris has very attractive lifted honeycomb, lemon and honeysuckle aromatics. A concentrated core of lemon citrus flavour is matched with red apple, pear and creamy, rich notes. The palate is dry but weighty with ripe fruit characters, wonderful balance and a fleshy roundness. The finish is long with a lovely balance of citrus acidity. Enjoy now or for the next three or so years.
The grapes for this wine were grown on the Barnsley vineyard in the Waihopai Valley. Meticulous viticulture with a particular focus on low yields, good fruit exposure and low disease pressure meant we could pick the grapes with excellent flavour and in pristine condition.
Picked at perfect ripeness with the ideal balance of sugar and acidity, the grapes were packed with flavour. After gentle crushing, the juice was fermented in stainless steel tanks with selected yeasts and left on lees to enhance flavour and texture.
Food Pairing: Spicy foods, especially Thai flavours and coconut-based curries, also pates and terrines, salmon, chicken and pork dishes.
