"Pristine and charming, the inviting bouquet shows Asian pear, Gala apple, green rockmelon and white floral aromas. The palate displays bright fruit intensity with fine texture and well-pitched acidity, offering excellent drinking. At its best: now to 2026" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit , Jul 2024
Aromas of vanilla poached pear and white blossom upfront with lychee, candied ginger and gentle baking spices. Bright flavors of pear carry to the palate and bounce off a long lush mid-palate showing lovely viscosity and texture. An elegant acid line gives the wine energy and pulls the palate through a long balanced finish.
Dashwood embraces the natural beauty of the coastlines and unique flora and fauna that are synonymous with New Zealand. Taking inspiration from the native Pohutukawa that flowers in summertime along New Zealand’s coastlines, our wines embody the care and respect we have for our precious environment.
Grapes were selectively harvested at full ripeness from Marlborough’s two winegrowing valleys; the Wairau Valley and the Awatere Valley. Left on skins for a period of time the grapes were then gently pressed into stainless steel tanks, cold settled and then racked for
fermentation. Yeast strains were selected to enhance the particular aromas of Pinot Gris and fermentation was kept at cool temperatures to preserve fresh aromatics and fruit purity. Post fermentation each component was carefully blended and prepared for bottling early to retain freshness.
Food Pairing: Pair with a rocket, pear and chevre salad.
