- Vibrant acidity
"A fabulous blend of Pinot Gris, Sauvignon Gris and Gewürztraminer, the wine shows apricot, grapefruit, lychee and fragrant spice characters with a hint of Turkish Delight. It is concentrated and succulent on the palate with lovely fruit intensity together with plush mouthfeel and vibrant acidity, leading to a persistent textural finish. Wonderfully flavoursome and harmonious. At its best: now to 2023" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2019
"An adventurous and possibly unique blend of pinot gris, sauvignon gris and gewürztraminer. A delicately aromatic white with ripe tree fruit and subtle floral flavours. Made in an off-dry style with fresh, mouth-tingling acidity on the finish" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Feb 2020
Aromas of pear drops; ripe stone fruit & citrus are intermingled with delightful hints of exotic French nougat and rose petal. This is an amazingly attractive wine that has depth, concentration and is ever so alluring. The palate is full, rich with masses of creamy texture and layers of complexity.
Misty Cove vintner, Andrew Bailey yet again pushes the boundaries by releasing a unique blend of Pinot Gris, Sauvignon Gris and Gewürztraminer from the Waihopai Valley, Marlborough, one of the sunniest and driest areas of New Zealand.
Hand harvested in small ripe parcels, each variety was gently crushed and allowed to naturally ferment. The three wines were blended together and kept on the original Pinot Gris yeast lees without sulphur for aging, enhancing the palate weight and giving the wine a deep sense of luxury and opulence.
