"Produced from grapes harvested from low yielding vines planted in the Crownthorpe sub-region. Fermented in batches in stainless steel tanks using a yeast strain chosen to retain the aromatic expression of the variety, then blended to achieve the desired complexity and texture in the finished wine. A gorgeous pale golden colour with intoxicating aromas of baked nashi pear, ripe red apple, white spice and undertones of lychee and floral notes. The palate is broad and textural with pear and apple flavours, and a light zesty acidity leading to an extremely long, spice driven finish" Angie Atkinson, The Wine Writer

This refined Pinot Gris has been crafted from grapes off superior Hawkes Bay vineyards.  Full bodied and creamy smooth, it displays attractive peach and nashi pear flavours complimented with a subtle lychee note, and a deliciously soft ginger spice finish. 

The grapes for this cooler-climate loving variety were sourced from low-yielding vines located within the Crownthorpe sub-region of Hawkes Bay. The site enjoys a temperate climate moderated throughout summer by cooling afternoon breezes, in tandem with alluvial soils underfoot overlaying red metal, on terraced sun-facing slopes, the combination of which is ideally suited to the Pinot Gris variety.

The weather over 2020 growing season is characterised by a cooler start during Spring flowering which helped to naturally moderate crop levels for higher wine quality, leading onto a long dry hot summer, continuing right through to harvest and providing unpressured conditions to allow the grapes to be picked at optimal ripeness. Harvesting was over a couple of picks for optimum flavour profile beginning on the 6th of March and completed 1st April 2020 with immaculate fruit condition.

The grapes were pressed on arrival to the winery, and the clarified juice transferred to stainless steel tanks for fermentation, initiated with an inoculated yeast specially selected for its aromatic expression. A blending trial on the separate batches was undertaken to achieve the right balance, enhanced complexity and mouthfeel. The emerging wine thereafter received a light fining, progressing through to cold stabilisation prior to bottling on 17th August 2020, under screwcap.

Food Pairing: Enjoy with antipasto, chicken or fish dishes.
