Gibbston Valley GV Collection Central Otago Pinot Gris 2022
Description
- Dry style
- Nashi pear
- Acacia
- Mineral finish
Bright straw in colour with nashi, acacia, and sweet summer hay aromatics. The palate is full bodied; its weight balanced by a mineral, dry finish. This wine is structured for immediate enjoyment or aging with confidence.
After an early October budburst, the vines pushed through some particularly cold early spring nights. Ample sunshine hours and rain helped establish even canopies and bunch sizes through settled November and December; with higher bunch and berry numbers than normal. It was another year for looking after canopies carefully; January 2022 was hot and dry; and whilst February brought cooler conditions. March was warm and dry; harvest came on time, with balanced acid levels in all varieties.
Our approach to Pinot Gris is to keep yields low. We source fruit from a premium vineyard that give a bright and fresh flavor profile, with high altitude aromatics, creamy texture with a mineral finish. After hand picking, fruit is whole bunch pressed, then fermented in a mix of barrel and tank. Following six months on fine lees, the wine is bottled.
