Description

Tasting Notes

Fragrant lemon, red apple and stone-fruit aromas lead to quite

a dry yet richly textured palate with fresh, bright fruit characters

and a gentle acidity.

Vineyards and viticulture

This is from our two adjacent Waihopai vineyards. The soils in

these blocks are a mixture of clay, gravel and silts. The clays

provide lovely mouthfeel and weight to this wine. The viticulture

is quite intensive as we undertake shoot, bunch and colour

thinning in order to ensure low crop levels, full ripening and

concentrated flavours. 2019 was an outstanding vintage so we

picked the grapes at perfect ripeness, with great flavour and in

wonderful condition.

Winemaking

The winemaking for this wine was very straight forward. We are

simply seeking to express the wonderful characters we get from

these vineyards. The grapes were gently pressed and fermented

at cool temperatures to retain the naturally occurring, fresh fruit

character. Fermentation was stopped with just a hint of residual

sugar and the wine was bottled here at the winery.

100% Pinot Gris, Alc 13.5%, TA 4.8, RS 4.8

Cellaring

Two to three years.

Food Match

Spicy foods, salmon, pâté, creamy pasta, roast pork or ideal just

as a glass of wine on its own.
