Description

  • Dry style
  • Vanilla custard
  • Subtle spice
  • Juicy acidity

"Delightfully fruited and elegantly fragrant, the bouquet shows green pear, apple, subtle spice and dried flower aromas, followed by a beautifully rounded palate offering delicate fruit intensity together with flowing texture and juicy acidity. At its best: now to 2023" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2021

"In the zone for gris. Parisian almond sweet nuttiness leads ripe pear scents – flavours also very similar to this. Soft, lightly greasy texture, clean ripple of mandarin acidity, good length and balance with a faintly nutty/marzipan finish. It’s very much in the zone, drinks a charm, is good" Mike Bennie, The Wine Front

A lovely aroma of freshly baked pears with vanilla custard make the nose of this wine so alluring. It’s followed by a generous, plush and silky smooth palate that moves slowly to reveal subtle stone fruit characters.

A prolonged Indian summer with cool nights led to expressive wines with great natural acidity. The season produced pristine fruit with ripe concentrated flavours. Vibrant, bristling with energy and ripe concentrated flavours is how Marlborough winemakers described the 2020 vintage, with some declaring it was the best quality they had seen in a decade.

Hand-picked into small bins and chilled before transportation to the winery, this wine saw a cool fermentation in stainless steel before extended maturation on lees to build texture and complexity.
