Notes | |||
"Situated in New Zealand’s most established wine growing region, the beguiling beauty of our elevated terraced vineyards in the Hawke’s Bay creates an enchanting Pinot Gris that captures the delicate aromatic flavors of the variety while retaining its natural vibrancy and purity. Warm days and cool nights create an extended growing season, the fruit ripens slowly developing favor intensity and hallmark aromatic characteristics. Its perfumed notes and soft hints of spice introduce a soft, yet delicate style with fresh citrus vitality." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Sliced apples, pears, lemons and crushed stones on the nose. Hint of honeysuckle, too. Medium-bodied with bright acidity. Nice balance of fruit and minerality. Drink now. Screw cap." —James Suckling |
