Wishbone Marlborough Pinot Gris 2026

Description

Dry, Pear, Spice

In the glass, a pale straw hue hints at the wine’s inviting character. The bouquet is lifted and expressive, with notes of ripe pear and a touch of delicate spice. The palate is smooth and generous, revealing layers of juicy yellow pear complemented by a subtle baked pastry nuance. Fresh, clean, and beautifully balanced in style, this Pinot Gris is approachable in its youth, while offering further depth with short-term cellaring over the next 2–3 years. 

Sourced from carefully selected Marlborough vineyards, this 2026 Pinot Gris reflects the region’s exceptional conditions and refined winemaking approach. The fruit was harvested in the cool of the morning and gently pressed to preserve purity and freshness. Fermentation took place in stainless steel at controlled temperatures to retain aromatic clarity, while time on light lees has contributed subtle texture and complexity before careful blending and bottling.

Food Pairing: A natural companion to creamy pasta, roast chicken, or a selection of fine cheeses—an effortlessly versatile wine for any occasion.
