Description

  • Off-dry style
  • Poached pear
  • Fresh pastry
  • Clean finish

"Elegant and nicely fragrant, showing apricot, pear, citrus peel and floral notes on the nose. The palate offers succulent fruit flavours with fine texture and bright acidity, making it refreshing and immediately drinkable. At its best: now to 2025" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2023

"Bright, even, pale yellow. The nose is lush and soft, packed with aromas of ripe pear, red apple, lily, spice and a suggestion of honey. Medium-bodied, dry to taste, aromas of ripe orchard fruit intertwined with citrus, lemon zest, lily and white pepper. Fine-textured phenolics reminiscent of citrus peels flow with lively acidity to a crisp, saline finish. This dry Pinot Gris is forwarded with citrus and orchard fruit, fresh acidity and a textured mouthfeel" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Mar 2024

"Varietal, bright, fresh and crisp on the palate with flavours of pears and apple, lemon and fruit spice. Lush and salivating on the palate with plenty of acid, medium alcohol and moderately weight. A wine of freshness and variety, persistent flavours and balanced, even finish. Best from 2024 through 2027+" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Mar 2024

Pale lemon. Pure aromas of fresh and subtle spices. This wine is elegant and opulent with notes of poached pear, fresh pastry and soft honeysuckle blossom, the style is off-dry, contributing to a fresh, clean finish.

The fruit was selected from vineyards in Marlborough's Awatere Valley and Southern Valley sub-regions.

The 2022 vintage was blessed with an abundance of sunshine and healthy growing conditions. Lower crop levels led to increased intensity of flavours within the grapes. Ripening steadily throughout the growing period, the fruit was continually monitored until the preferred balance of flavour and ripeness was achieved.

During a cool evening, the vineyard was machine harvested and the grapes quickly brought to the winery where they were destemmed and pressed. The free run juice was cold settled prior to fermentation in small stainless steel tanks. A small portion went through malolactic conversion to add softness and texture. After fermentation, the wine was left on light lees for three months to enhance and retain the varietal characteristics, prior to delicate blending. Heather conducted minimal fining and handling before filtration and bottling, ensuring this Pinot Gris shows a true expression of the grape variety.

Food Pairing: An ideal wine as an aperatif, or paired with lightly spiced seafood.
