Pinot Gris Marlborough 2010

This varietal is an attractive, delicately perfumed alternative to Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. Our Pinot Gris is all about texture and flavour.

Light aroma of pear, peach and nectarine; medium in body with an exceptional balance between fruit sweetness and acidity.

This wine will leave a lasting impression. It’s a great mate with many friends and matches particularly well with Asian food.

WINEMAKING NOTES:

Fruit for our Pinot Gris comes from five to seven year old vines grown in silt, river stone soils which are cropped throughout the season to ensure optimal concentration of flavour and acidity profile.

Upon harvest, grapes are destemmed and pumped to press. Juice is drained immediately and left to settle for 36-48 hours. Fermentation then commences using a range of yeasts chosen for their ability to enhance the flavour profile and palate weight. The wine is then stabilized, filtered, blended, and bottled ready for your enjoyment.
