Description

Dry style
Apricot & mango
White blossom
Balanced acidity

This Pinot Gris is lifted and bright with fresh apricot and nashi pear aromas, and notes of delicate white blossom. Full flavours of mango and apricot on the palate are well balanced with fruit sweetness and acidity. Enjoy now, or cellar up to 2 years.

Marlborough experienced rather high rainfall during the growing season, resulting in high moisture levels throughout the vineyard. Dewy mornings combined with good crops created a sense of nervousness heading into vintage. However, the weather remained stable, which meant we could pick our fruit when desired and the concentration and health of the fruit was outstanding. The resulting wine is showing wonderful fruit concentration, with underlying purity and minerality.

Carefully selected parcels of Pinot Gris from our Awatere and Wairau Valley vineyards were used to craft this wine. At the winery, individual parcels of fruit were gently pressed and clarified. The clear juice was then fermented separately using a range of selected yeasts. A long, cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks retained the vibrant, fresh characters. After fermentation the wine was blended, stabilised, and filtered in preparation for bottling.

Our BABYDOLL sheep live beneath the vines, nibbling on grass and weeds and giving their name to our delicious wines. Small but mighty, they’re wonderful groundskeepers. Yes, they need a little help to keep the mowing going. But it’s all for the good of the grapes.

Food Pairing: Try with Asian food, chicken or light pastas. Suitable for vegetarians, vegans and a gluten free diet.
