Kingfisher Bay Marlborough Pinot Gris 2020

Description

• Dry style
• Ripe peach
• Passionfruit
• Crisp mouthfeel

"Bright and elegantly expressed, the wine shows apricot, fresh pear, floral and Gala apple characters on the nose. It's smooth and fruit forward on the palate, offering lovely fruit intensity backed by crisp acidity, finishing long and refreshingly tasty. At its best: now to 2022" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2020

A full and ripe palate of pear, ripe peach and passionfruit provides a refreshing, crisp mouthfeel with a hint of citrus. Well balanced structure and lean acidity ensures the wine finishes clean and fresh.

Grapes were selected from key Marlborough vineyard sites of Omaka, Wairau and Awatere valleys, creating a wine that is full bodied and fragrant with tropical fruits and a subtle spice not on the finish.

Drinking well now and will remain at its best three to four years from vintage date.

Food Pairing: Perfectly matched with roast pork and a stewed pear sauce.
