- Vibrant acidity
"It's delightfully ripe and inviting on the nose with Nashi pear, rockmelon, lemon zest and white floral aromas. The palate delivers excellent focus and flow, beautifully complemented by juicy fruit intensity. Splendidly composed and elegant, offering excellent drinking. At its best: now to 2026" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
"Almost luscious wine with a fruit-salad-like medley of tree fruit flavours and vanilla pod characters. Just a hint of sweetness which is balanced by vibrant acidity to produce a mouth-watering effect that lingers after the wine has been swallowed" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review
"Peach and pear lead on this delicately fruity, floral, textural white. It's round in the mouth without feeling fat. Pair with shellfish and summer veg or knock back on its own" Wine Enthusiast
"Aromas of sliced pears and apples with lemon peel, white flowers and hints of citrus leaf. Medium-bodied, crisp and tangy with a refreshing, zesty finish, that has a phenolic edge to it. Sustainable. Drink now. Screw cap" James Suckling
Pears and white flower aromas burst from the glass. Delicate, honeyed and elegantly balanced Marlborough Pinot Gris. Lifted floral and spice aroma's balance a rich palate of succulent peach, red apple and pear. The superb textural characters of the wine allow the complex notes of nashi pear to shine through, accompanied by a layer of bright crisp red apple notes.
Excellent warm and dry conditions in Marlborough meant fruit could be left on the vine to develop richer, denser flavours. Harvest 2023 allowed the fruit to hang on the vine until fully ripe and produced clean, bright fruit withlovely acid balance.
