One of the icon Pinot Gris' of New Zealand - originally influenced by the style of wines from Alsace - it has developed over the years into a uniquely Martinborough style. Gentle aromas of lychee, lemon and ginger are the focus.. The palate is fresh and finely textured with flavours of coriander seed, lemon verbena and a hint of Turkish Delight. Fresh acidity ties this generous, complex wine together, giving a long and satisfying finish to the palate.

From vines now over 26 years of age, the depth and complexity of flavour on the palate make it one of our favourite and versatile wine matching choices. The fresh vibrancy of the fruit aromas make for a charming aperitive while the weight on the palate balances dishes with heady spice and/or challenging flavours. Fermented in neutral barrels for extra texture, this Pinot Gris will benefit from bottle age.
