Description

"Youthful and elegant, the nicely lifted bouquet shows white stone fruit, grapefruit, fresh pear and floral characters. The palate is juicy and beautifully rounded, offering bright fruit intensity and fine texture, brilliantly structured by refreshing acidity. Lovely harmony and integration, and finishes long and vibrant. At its best: now to 2020" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Nov 2017

On the nose this Mystery Pinot Gris is typically varietal, with aromas of ripe pear, nectarine, peach and spice. The palate is supple and juicy, the stone fruit and pear flavours complimented by subtle creaminess from lees aging. The finish is fine, dry and fresh.

The fruit for this Pinot Gris is grown on the free draining river terrace of this Mystery Vineyard's home vineyard. Warm days and cool nights allow for a long ripening period guaranteeing ripe concentrated fruit while maintaining freshness The focus in the winery was to capture the pure fruit flavours that come from the vineyard, whilst adding complexity through our winemaking efforts to produce a multi-dimensional wine. This was achieved by tank fermenting the juice using yeasts that are able to ferment at low temperatures – preserving the essential fruit flavours.

Food Pairing: A great match with seafood, chicken or on its own with a chilled peach.
