Edwin Fox Reserve Marlborough Pinot Gris 2026

Description

Apple, Dry, Pastry

"It's delightfully fruity and inviting on the nose, showing notes of ripe pear, rock melon, nectarine, and florals. The juicy palate delivers a fine flow and refreshing acidity, making it elegant and immediately appealing" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

Savour the 2026 Pinot Gris with its fragrant aromas of cinnamon-baked pear. The palate is crisp and generously textured, revealing layers of green apple, honeydew melon, and freshly baked pastry.

Named after the remarkable ship that rests on the Picton foreshore in the picturesque Marlborough Sounds, this wine pays tribute to a vessel built in Bengal in 1853. Visiting the historic East Indiaman is a breathtaking experience—much like enjoying our 2026 vintage. Crafted from carefully selected fruit grown in the Marlborough region, this expressive Pinot Gris highlights exceptional quality and vibrant, fruit-forward character.

Harvested in mid-March, the grapes were quickly pressed off their blush skins and fermented separately in cool stainless-steel tanks. Our winemakers carefully blended the parcels to capture the true essence of Marlborough before bottling.
